This captivating tale follows the young Humphry Gurton, who, after the tragic loss of his parents and a series of unfortunate events, finds himself a midshipman on the privateer ship, the 'Wolf'. The journey takes a dramatic turn as the ship becomes a floating pandemonium, leading to a mutiny that leaves Humphry stranded on a deserted island. With only his wits, a Testament, and the sparse supplies from the ship, Humphry must learn to survive alone.
