The Devil's Admiral

Excerpt: "Captain Riggs had a trunk full of old logbooks, and he said any of them would make a better story than the Kut Sang. The truth of it was, he didn''t want me to write this story. There were things he didn''t wish to see in type, perhaps because he feared to read about himself and what had happened in the old steamer in the China Sea..." Frederick Ferdinand Moore was an American author, sailor and war correspondent.
