Oddly I've not read that, but his "The Pilot" is a quite good adventure yarn on the English Coast. The real guy story is based on was from Scotland, joined USA Navy, captured a British ship in Belfast Lough at anchor near Carrickfergus (Belfast was tiny then so it was Carrickfergus Lough then) and later he was in the Russian Imperial Navy. British regarded him as a Pirate.
