| Summary | "The Hispaniola Plate (1683-1893)" by John Bloundelle-Burton is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative revolves around the legendary Captain Sir William Phips and Lieutenant Nicholas Crafer as they embark on a treasure-hunting expedition in the West Indies, intertwining elements of history and fiction. The story integrates the search for a hidden fortune linked to a sunken Spanish ship, providing a backdrop filled with adventure, mutiny, and maritime intrigue. At the start of the novel, readers are introduced to Reginald Crafer, a young naval officer who learns about his inheritance of Phips House and its peculiar stipulations, including a rumored hidden treasure left by his ancestor, Nicholas Crafer. Reginald finds himself delving into the history of his family and uncovering clues about the treasure that remains a mystery to his lineage. The opening chapters set a tone of curiosity and adventure as Reginald reflects on the legacy of his ancestor while embarking on a journey to unravel the connections between his past and the treasure search led by Phips, raising questions about fortune, legacy, and familial ties.
