1 Attachment(s)
A relic of the Holy Cross, a haunted ship and even a werewolf are all characters in this epic gothic tale by Captain Frederick Marryat. This classic book explores the legend of The Flying Dutchman. (Not the SpongeBob SquarePants version; this is the scary version.)
Philip Vanderdecken travels the seas while trying to save his father. Philip's father has been doomed to sail for eternity as captain of a phantom ship, after he yelled an oath to God and then killed a crew member while attempting to sail around the Cape of Good Hope. Legend tells that the Flying Dutchman brings doom to all who encounter her. This is a fast-paced, exciting tale of terror on the high seas! |
