Beschreibung

At just 14-years-old, Tom Cringle has been made a lieutenant in the British Navy during the War of 1812. He endures brutal battles against vengeful pirates on both land and sea, and struggles with his conscience as he brings a group of stolen slaves back to their master's plantation. Tom tests his limits as he stands up for what he believes is right. Illustrations.

Autor

Richard Wilbur on Runners: "Runners is full of such engaging poems as 'Porches,' 'Wood for Winter,' and 'Witnesses.' In other places such as 'The Fallen' or 'Goat Castle, Natchez,' there is some deftly conveyed frisson. And then there are admirable poems ('Ravens,' 'Heron and Trout,' 'Ending Up in Horse Creek Canyon') which are informed by a large and deep sense of participation in the whole of life. Gerald Hausman has put together a strong, subtle and varied collection."
