Summary "Wolves of the Sea" by Randall Parrish is a historical novel written during the early 20th century. The story, presented as a manuscript belonging to Geoffry Carlyle, follows the adventures of a group of prisoners sentenced to transportation in the 17th century, particularly focusing on Carlyle, who reflects on their harrowing journey aboard a ship bound for Virginia. The book delves into themes of servitude, freedom, and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity. The opening portion of the novel introduces readers to Geoffry Carlyle as he recounts his memories of being marched out of prison and onto the ship "Romping Betsy," where he and other prisoners are to be sold into servitude. Amidst this grim scenario, his eyes are drawn to a young woman, Dorothy Fairfax, traveling with a wealthy planter, leading to an interesting dynamic that hints at both camaraderie and conflict. As they set sail, the atmosphere on board is rife with tension, underscored by Geoffry's reflections on his fate and the looming vulnerability he feels from those who may wish him harm, particularly a man named Sanchez. This rich exposition sets the stage for the unfolding drama of piracy, love, and betrayal in the New World. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
