1 author picked The Captain of All Pleasures as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
One of my all-time favorite stories set on the high seas with a daring sea captain and a worthy heroine. The story involves two competing shipping companies in 19th century England, and two captains (the English Earl, Captain Sutherland, and the American, Captain Lassiter).

From Regan's list on pirate sea stories.
