About this book

The Great Western Series ends with this sixth volume, in which the young hero heads home to Michigan by a route few tourists take. The story moves between the Florida coast, the Gulf of Mexico and the Mississippi, and the subtitle speaks of yachting. Oliver Optic notes in the preface that it was his seventy-fifth book, and that his first, with a preface dated 1852, also dealt with the Mississippi, its plot worked out on a steamboat trip in 1848. It first appeared in 1881.
