[Perry County frontier series (Reading Order) 09] • Hawk's Feather

In the last of the 1700's, pirates still lurked in the mysterious Floridas, and treasure was buried there. The golden hoards were sought, and some were uncovered.

Commercial vessels served the sea routes, but The British Navy regularly boarded ships and forced American sailors into their service—"pressing," it was called.

Young Jonas Hawk, once of Pennsylvania, is trapped within the ignoble brutality of the dangerous times, but Hawk fights back. He acquires a ship and secret knowledge that, if properly applied, could make him and his crew wealthy beyond wildest dreams.

This is an adventure tale told in Roy Chandler's easy style that entrances the reader and makes the book difficult to put down.
