The Black Joke

The Black Joke

by Farley Mowat, Victor Mays

About this book

The Black Joke is a rousing sea story in the tradition of the great classic pirate tales. The time is the 1930s. The loot is bootleg liquor, not pirate gold. The ship is the Black Joke, the speediest, nimblest craft on the Newfoundland coast—with Jonathon Spence owner and master. An unwelcome passenger enmeshes the boat and her crew (young Peter and Kye) in danger and involve the fiercely independent people of the island of Miquelon.
