Captain Paul - Alexandre Dumas

Chained up in the hold of a French warship, Lusignan\'s only hope of escape rests with his captor - Captain Paul. A man with a mysterious past, Captain Paul is transporting Lusignan to exile in the West Indies. Little does he know that his mission is a sham. His prisoner is an innocent man, framed because he fell in love with a Count\'s daughter. Once the truth is revealed, Paul and Lusignan return to France, determined to seek justice.Inspired by the real life of American Revolutionary War hero John Paul Jones, \"Captain Paul\" is a rollicking melodrama, packed with action and romance. A fine precursor to Dumas\' later classics, it\'s especially recommended for fans of naval adventures, like C.S. Forester\'s \"Hornblower\" series.
