Kipling, Rudyard - Captains Courageous - Language: English, Novel - Format: ePub

Neither does Disko Troop, skipper of the "We're Here", a fishing schooner out of Gloucester, Massachusetts, when his crew fishes Harvey Cheyne out of the Atlantic. There's no place on the (More) Grand Banks for bystanders, so Harvey is press-ganged into service as a replacement for a man lost overboard and drowned.
