Islands of Angry Ghosts is a 1966 book by Australian journalist and writer Hugh Edwards. The book is split into two parts: the first reconstructs the wreck and subsequent horrors, including mutiny, murder, rape and cannibalism, associated with the wreck of the Dutch East India Company's Batavia of the Western Coast of Australia; and the second follows the search for the wreck and salvage of the wreck by Edwards and a crew of divers.
