The story follows Harvey Cheyne Jr., a wealthy teenager who is rescued from drowning in the North Atlantic by a Portuguese fisherman after being washed overboard from a transatlantic steamer. Set against the backdrop of 19th-century fishing adventures, the novel explores themes of bravery, growth, and the transformation of a privileged boy into a responsible young man. Notably, it is Kipling's only work entirely set in North America, receiving praise from Teddy Roosevelt for its portrayal of youthful character and adventure.
