Jack finds himself off to a promising start when he's given command of the merchant vessel Abigail bound from Philadelphia for Barbados. But even before the dock lines are cast off, the voyage begins to look like a stormy passage indeed. Jack is saddled with a confidant of the Abigail's owner who cannot help meddling in the running of the ship. What's more, with the French making prizes of American merchantmen, Abigail's owner has instructed Jack to fight if need be, thrusting the first-time captain and his small crew into a naval war for which they are totally unprepared. 650 0 $a Ship captains $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Merchant ships $v Fiction. 650 7 $a FICTION / Historical / Colonial America & Revolution. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a FICTION / Sea Stories. $2 bisacsh 651 0 $a United States $x History, Naval $y 18th century $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Audiobooks. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Sea stories. $2 gsafd 700 1 $a Lee, John Rafter, $e narrator. $9 34073 941 $a 1 945 $a cdab 952 $l FYPI314 $d 20240402012455.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=961C4168F0B811EE9EC0998A3BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
