A novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative depicts the life of a British seaman during the age of wooden warships and provides a vivid portrayal of naval life, particularly set against the backdrop of significant battles like the one on the ''glorious first of June.'' The story revolves around the main character, William Freeborn, who faces the harsh realities of life at sea, including personal loss and the struggles of parenthood aboard a ship. The opening of the novel sets a dramatic tone as the ship ''Terrible'' sails through a turbulent Atlantic storm, showcasing the dangers of naval life. The captain, Josiah Penrose, is depicted as a compassionate leader, especially as he tends to the well-being of his crew and their families, including the wife of one of his men, William Freeborn. As the ship bravely faces the elements, Freeborn receives devastating news about his wife, Molly, and the birth of their child, Billy True Blue. Through a blend of adventure and human emotion, Kingston captures the camaraderie and hardships faced by sailors while foreshadowing the challenges that little Billy will encounter as he grows up in the turbulent world of the sea.
