Suddenly fatherless, young Bob Ledbury must find work so he can support himself and his mother. Struggling to find employment, Bob's life changes forever when he meets old Tom Lokins, who recognises the desperate situation and invites Bob to join his whaling ship. There is plenty of fun in-store for the pair on the high-seas, as we follow them on their nautical adventures. A swashbuckling story from the popular children's author R.M. Ballantyne.
