War has been raging in Europe and it looks to continue for many years to come. Lewis, son of Christina and Joe, known to his friends as ‘Lew’, grows from charming adolescent to brave seafarer. At times passionate, at others brave, Lewis is the dashing romantic lead in this tale, which takes in 25 years of his life and his relationship with Brenda Grant, his beloved, and his sister Shirley. He possesses all the McGann trademarks, including a love of the sea.
Beginning in 1915 and spanning the tumultuous years of the Great War to the shattering onset of World War II, this is his story. It takes him from London to New York, from Shanghai to Pearl Harbour. Other more exotic characters appear in Lew’s life, like the loyal Hashimoto Kurita and Lieutenant Hallstrom, in a wonderful picaresque tale that forms a crucial part in the McGann saga. Lewis’s naval career and relationships span a quarter-century from wartime North Atlantic service to the increasingly dangerous Pacific, showing how one generation’s peacetime travel becomes preparation for another global conflict.
