Excerpt from Dave Porter in the South Seas: Or the Strange Cruise of the Stormy PetrelIn the first volume of this series, called Dave Porter at Oak Hall, I introduced a typical Ameri can boy, and gave something of his haps and mis haps at an American boarding school of to-day. At this school Dave made a number of warm friends, and also a few enemies, and was the means of bringing one weak and misguided youth to a realization of his better self. Dave was poor and had to fight his way to the front, and this was not accomplished until he had shown those around him what a truly straightforward and manly fellow he was.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
