Across the Salt Seas: A Romance of the War of Succession is a historical novel by John Bloundelle-Burton, first published in 1897. Set during the War of Spanish Succession (1701-1714), it follows Mervyn Crespin, a lieutenant in the Cuirassiers, as he navigates intrigue and danger on a journey that reveals the complexities of identity and the impact of past actions.
