Captains Courageous
Captains Courageous follows the adventures of fifteen-year-old Harvey Cheyne Jr. The spoiled son of a millionaire, Harvey Cheyne has known nothing but a life of luxury. But when an accident at sea brings him to the deck of a Massachusetts fishing boat, he suddenly finds himself thrown into a world he knows nothing about.
Can he endure the back-breaking work of a fisherman? Will he ever see his parents again? Will he survive in a world where money does not matter, and laziness can lead to death on the high seas?
