Book: The Privateersman Marryat's nonstop action and wry wit combine to create an immensely entertaining blend of sea story and farce. "The Privateersman" recounts the compelling adventures of a privateer, Alexander Musgrave. This exciting book is the last sea story written by Marryat.
Privateers were essentially freelance ships, sanctioned during wartime to sail and do battle on behalf of adversary governments, and this tale follows Alexander Musgrave, a privateer-turned-adventurer, across three continents and into the arms of a beautiful woman.
