(3) 4-6 This classic by English poet Masefield is a rip-roaring adventure story about pirates and smuggling along the coast of Devon. When an orphan boy stumbles on the secret hiding place of a band of local smugglers, they force him to sail with them to ensure his silence. A glossary is appended for landlubbers unsure of the nature of fife-rails and marlinspikes.
