This romance of the Spanish Main, set in the 17th century, was Masefield's first novel. A contemporary review in the Observer noted: "His style is crisp, curt and vigorous. He has the Stevensonian sea-swagger, the Stevensonian sense of beauty and poetic spirit. Mr. Masefield's descriptions ring true and his characters carry conviction."
