The First of the English: A Novel

Book Description HTML

Taking the course of the vessel he glances at the two men lashed by the tiller to prevent their being washed overboard by the waves that have been chasing the ship ever since she left the white cliffs of England, and remarks: “Better cast yourselves loose lads, we are in [6]quieter water now. There’s a bit of Flanders between us and the worst of the gale.”
