Chapter Three of Six. Before the Grosvenor.
This chapter delves into early European shipwrecks along the African coast, predating the 1782 Grosvenor incident. It reveals a complex history of encounters, contrasting initial hostilities (like those with Bartolomeu Dias and Francisco d'Almeida) with surprising instances of trade and aid from local communities. Shipwrecks like the Sao Joao, Sao Bento, and Dodington highlight both the immense perils faced by sailors and the resilience and humanity shown by both castaways and African tribes. The chapter ultimately sets the stage for the Grosvenor narrative, emphasizing that its predominantly hostile reception was an exception to historical patterns, challenging the often-assumed narrative of inherent African hostility towards shipwrecked Europeans.
