Thomas Mason, adventurer par Henry Pleasants
When I bought this copy, I did so because the illustrator was Peter Hurd, one of the Brandywine School of illustrators/artists. The book was written by a Chester County PA author and I collect those books.

I was extremely and pleasantly surprised that it talked about a sailing adventure related to the Revolutionary War. Copies of primary sources are included to confirm the dates and events.
