Argo
In 1805, Ruatara, the young son of a New Zealand chief, joined the crew of whaler Argo keen for adventure. After being left alone and penniless in Sydney by an unscrupulous captain, Ruatara joined the crew of Albion to return to New Zealand after a six month whaling voyage. This was to be just the beginning of the future chief's many adventures despite the fact he lived to only 25.
