Description

1911. This American clergyman and author also graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy. Ordained by the Protestant Episcopal Church, he was chaplain of the First Pennsylvania Volunteers at the time of the Spanish-American War. He is best known by his historical novels. Set in the mid-1800s, the first half of this novel is a sea adventure fantasy of the primitive reversion of island castaways. Upon their return to civilization, the story develops into an American Civil War adventure. The book begins: The Master of the Swiftsure, ignorant of the acute observations that wise Solon addressed to another potentate almost as supreme in his domain as a lord of the sea on his quarterdeck, counted himself a happy man, although he was yet young and very much alive. The two objects upon which his happiness rested, so he thought, as securely as the foundations of the deep are laid in the bars of the sea-as Sailor Jonah would phrase it-were both at this moment before his vision.
