Cardinal Giant GC-6 | American Revolution #2

AT WAR FOR HER LIBERTY...
...and on the high seas, the fearless young patriot Tim Bennett lay in wait for the mighty ships of the British fleet. Tim attacked with all the fierceness of the new-found American love for freedom, wiping the seas clean of the encroaching forces of slavery and oppression.

At home the war raged on, and the gentle Lucy waited for her lover while he scourged the British fleet. But in Cap Francois, Tim met a fatal attraction tot eh perverse, enticing Jeannette, to whom freedom and liberty were merely words to be set aside in the cause of her own demanding passion.

WE WE`LL WIPE THEM OFF THE SEA! That was the cry that rang in Tim Bennett`s ears as he sailed from New England to the Bahamas. For Tim was an American privateersman, iying in wait for the mighty British fleet. Then Tim met the enemy. Like a shark, he attacked, ripping their great ships in fierce battle after battle, scourging the seas in pursuit of liberty.
At home in the war-ravaged colonies, the gentle Lucy waited for him. But in languorous Cap François, there was always Jeannette - the perverse, exquisite Creole - who loved like a demon and to whom free-dom was just another word for licentiousness....
STARS ON THE SEA is a historical novel so glorious, so lavish, that The Saturday Review said: `What a show it is! For vim and sustained interest, for scope and excitement, this book is one of the best!`
