| Summary | "Stolen Treasure" by Howard Pyle is a historical adventure novel written in the early 20th century. Set in the age of piracy during the 17th century, the story follows young Henry Mostyn, a daring and adventurous youth who becomes entangled with the infamous buccaneer Captain Henry Morgan. The tale promises themes of treasure hunting, adventure on the high seas, and encounters with danger as Henry navigates his way through thrilling escapades. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Henry Mostyn, a reckless boy living in the Barbadoes. Despite his family's plans for him to become a clergyman, his adventurous spirit leads him to enlist with Captain Morgan as he seeks to undertake daring exploits against the Spanish. The narrative quickly unfolds with tales of Morgan's ambitious plans to attack a Spanish fleet. Through lively descriptions, Pyle sets the stage for a world filled with pirates, treasures, and the antics surrounding the daring rescue of hostages. The opening chapters establish Henry's character and foreshadow the thrilling adventures that lie ahead as he joins the ranks of Captain Morgan's crew. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
