Moby-Duck: The True Story of 28,800 Bath Toys Lost at Sea and of the Beachcombers, Oceanographers, Environmentalists, and Fools, Including the Author, Who Went in Search of Them[1] by Donovan Hohn is a great book about a container of toys lost in the Pacific in 1992 and their subsequent travels around the world.
Oceanographers have since learned about currents from tracing them.
