A sudden gale off Martha’s Vineyard wrecks a little pleasure boat and its young crew is picked up by a mysterious steamer that is fitted below like a warship. Her captain is running arms to the Cuban rebels, and the boys soon find themselves dodging Spanish gunboats and carrying messages into enemy country.
A breathless boys’ adventure of the Cuban struggle for independence; its dialect portrayal of a Black character is of its time. Download the free EPUB.
