Thirteen-year old Jameson Martin Cooper, the son of a printer, is orphaned and homeless in 1712 Charles Towne, Carolina Territory. Abducted by Queen Anne's privateers, he eventually earns back his freedom through bravery, hard work, and his skills as a printer. This undemanding yet diverting maritime adventure will engage middle-grade historical fiction fans.
