Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The narrative unfolds through the eyes of Isaac Biddlecomb, a daring captain whose smuggling exploits challenge British authority before the Revolutionary War officially begins. As he navigates the treacherous waters of rebellion, Biddlecomb's defiance leads to his capture by the H.M.S. Icarus, where he endures brutal treatment. Alongside his comrade Ezra Rumstick, he confronts the harsh realities of war at sea, illustrating the often-overlooked maritime perspective of America’s fight for independence, filled with rich historical detail and vivid characterizations.
