Catalina Island has a nautical celebrity: the wreck of a traditional Chinese merchant ship from the 18th century, a vessel that survived the Opium Wars, the Taiping Rebellion, the Chinese Revolution, and ended up as a speak-easy anchored off California’s southern coastline. This presentation will look at the origins, history, and context of the Ningpo (“Peaceful Wave”), and what we might learn from the site in the future.
