In 1947, Marguerite Henry published her children’s classic, Misty of Chincoteague, a story about the wild horses that have lived on Assateague Island for centuries. At the beginning of this story, the legend that these mysterious animals came from a lost Spanish galleon is told. This book became an immediate bestseller and was made into a movie in 1961. Now, in the 60th Anniversary year of the publication of Misty, a new book called The Hidden Galleon takes this centuries-old legend into the realm of documented history.
