| Summary | "The Treasure of the 'San Philipo'" by Percy F. Westerman is a historical adventure novel likely written in the early 20th century. The narrative revolves around Reginald Trevena, a sixteen-year-old boy who, along with his father and Uncle Herbert, embarks on a thrilling quest to discover the treasure of a sunken Spanish galleon, the "San Philipo." The tale intertwines themes of family legacy, seafaring adventure, and the pursuit of long-lost riches, capturing the imaginations of those who enjoy tales of nautical exploration and mystery. At the start of the story, Reginald's excitement grows when he learns that his Uncle Herbert has uncovered new clues about the elusive treasure that could restore the fading fortunes of the Trevena family, linked to their ancestor, Captain Humphrey Trevena. The opening chapters introduce the family's rich history and the fateful capture of the "San Philipo" by the privateer “Anne,” leading to its subsequent wreck. As Reginald and his family piece together the puzzle of Humphrey’s past and the whereabouts of the treasure, they encounter formidable obstacles, including a dangerous shipwreck and potential adversaries who seek the same prize. The excitement heightens through the discovery of a cryptic cipher that promises to reveal the treasure's location, setting the stage for an adventure filled with danger, intrigue, and the thrill of the hunt.
