Summary

The spoiled son of a railroad tycoon is saved from drowning in the north Atlantic. President Teddy Roosevelt extolled the book in his essay "What We Can Expect of the American Boy", praising Kipling for describing "in the liveliest way just what a boy should be and do." One of Kipling’s greatest adventure stories.
