Hodgson, Edward Smith Two Gallant Sons of Devon: A Tale of the Days of Queen Bess Produced by Nick Hodson of London, England "Two Gallant Sons of Devon: A Tale of the Days of Queen Bess" by Harry Collingwood is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The story follows the adventures of two close friends, Philip Stukely and Dick Chichester, set against the backdrop of the late 16th century during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I. Their journey begins in Devonport, where they are thrust into a world of privateering, battles, and rich treasures, setting the stage for their daring escapades on the high seas. At the start of the narrative, the young men enjoy a blissful evening sail that quickly turns perilous when a sudden squall overwhelms their borrowed lugger, nearly leading to their drowning. They are rescued by a privateer ship, the Adventure, where they learn of their new roles in the crew and the promise of thrilling exploits ahead. As the story unfolds, they bravely engage in battles against Spanish ships, navigate through dangers, and cunningly navigate the whims of fate, including an encounter with Peruvian Indians. The opening portion of the book establishes a robust sense of adventure, friendship, and the allure of the unknown, drawing readers into a richly described historical setting filled with excitement.
