Excerpt from The Blood Ship
He said this was the stuff to go into his book. Romance, mystery! It was quite as important as the later and better known incidents in the king's life. That was why Captain Shreve must tell him all he knew about the fellow. If he could only get at the beginning of the king's career in the islands. Where did the fellow come from? Why should a man bring his bride into an uncivilized and lawless section of the world, and settle down for life? There must be a story in that. Ah, yes, and he was the man who could properly do it.
