Frank Baum. Although he is more widely known as the author of the \u003ci\u003eLand of Oz\u003c\/i\u003e series, Baum also used several pseudonyms to make forays into more conventional fiction for young adults. \u003ci\u003eSam Steele's Adventures on Land and Sea\u003c\/i\u003e, written under the pen name \"Capt. Hugh Fitzgerald,\" is a story of discovery, betrayal, fortune, and adventure. \"An orphan, now, and alone in the world. This father whom the angry seas had engulfed was the only relative I had known since my sweet little mother wearied of the world and sought refuge in Heaven, years and years ago.\" Having already lost his mother as a boy, sixteen year old Sam Steele faces tragedy once more. His father's ship, the \u003ci\u003eSaracen\u003c\/i\u003e, was lost at sea near the Lucayan Archipelago, leaving just one sailor alive. All that remains of Captain Steele are his watch, his ring, and a son who never had the chance to say goodbye. Soon, Sam is cut off from his rightful inheritance by Mrs. Ranck, his guardian. Alone in the world, without a penny to his name, Sam reconnects with his maternal uncle Naboth, a sea captain preparing to sail from San Francisco to join the Klondike Gold Rush. Together, they journey into the vast Pacific, where fortune and danger await. While \u003ci\u003eSam Steele's Adventures on Land and Sea\u003c\/i\u003e is far from the fantasy and fairy tale style most of Baum's readers adore him for, it remains an entertaining work of adventure fiction for devoted fans of the \u003ci\u003eOz\u003c\/i\u003e series and newcomers alike. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of L. Frank Baum's \u003ci\u003eSam Steele's Adventures on Land and Sea\u003c\/i\u003e is a classic of American literature reimagined for modern readers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 128\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.38 x 8 x 5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 11, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55152086319395,"sku":"9781513136820","price":21.03,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0986\/8279\/8371\/files\/K3VqRm1HMThLVmYyQzNWRzJVcEprdz09.webp?v=1779786818","url":"https:\/\/homeschoolbookbarn.com\/products\/sam-steeles-adventures-on-land-and-sea-hardcover","provider":"Homeschool Book Barn","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
