Henry Kittredge recounts the words and deeds of hundreds of Cape Cod skippers. Beginning with the Colonial coasters, Kittredge gives a vibrant chronicle of the voyages, cargoes, and battles. Perhaps more importantly, he paints a captivating portrait of the Cape Cod men who sailed their vessels around the world. Readers come to know the humor, piety, vigor, and resourcefulness with which these rare men carried their cargoes, braving hurricanes, fevers, and pirates all along the way.
