The Saintly Buccaneer

by Gilbert Morris Book 5 in the House of Winslow series.

Amazon

4.5(162)

Paul Winslow begins as an opponent of the American Revolution, more suspicious of rebellion than inspired by Patriot arguments. His life changes violently when he is shanghaied and forced aboard a naval vessel, throwing him into a war he had hoped to avoid and separating him from the political certainty with which he began.

An injury and loss of memory further unsettle Paul’s identity, leaving him dependent on people whose loyalties may differ from his own. Service at sea exposes him to the Revolution from a practical rather than ideological perspective. The novel follows a reluctant participant forced to reconsider patriotism, faith and personal allegiance while naval warfare makes neutrality impossible.
