"The Tragedy of Ida Noble" by William Clark Russell is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story begins aboard the ship Ocean Ranger, introducing characters like the second mate, James Portlack, and hints at an intense maritime adventure involving a particularly distressing event. The novel explores themes of betrayal, love, and the lengths one might go to reclaim what was lost, as highlighted by the mysterious circumstances involving Captain Noble's daughter, Ida. At the start of the novel, we find the ship Ocean Ranger sailing under a gloomy sky, as Portlack comes on watch. He observes an American ship signaling for help, which leads him to uncover a plot involving the ship's crew and a potential mutiny. Tensions rise as Portlack grapples with the confusing situation aboard the American vessel, ultimately leading to his abandonment at sea. This opening portion sets the stage for a compelling tale of desperation and survival on the high seas, where Portlack’s fate becomes entwined with the complexities of love and loyalty as the story unfolds.
