This book about a wealthy, spoiled and pampered adolescent, who discovers his true self when because of fate, is induced to the not-so-easy life aboard a fishing schooner in the 19th century Grand Banks.Falling overboard from a passenger steamer, the main character is rescued from drowning by a fishing vessel trawling the Atlantic off Newfoundland. During the ship's long, arduous look for it's catch, the boy is unwittingly, but luckily, netted by the fishermen. The captain, not believing the boy's claims of vast wealth, refuses to bring the ship immediately back to land, but expects him to work just like the rest of the crew, until the schooner returns home with its full catch of fish.I enjoyed this book because of the main character's complete transformation from a bratty, arrogant rich child, to a self-disciplined, wiser and likeable young man.
