If you are like me, you read Robert Luis Stevenson's Treasure Island several times as a child, and have wondered what happened to Long John Silver, Benn Gunn, and The Treasure of Dead Man's Chest. You now hold in your hands the third novel in the Of Chains and Slavery trilogy, which answers those nagging questions. True to his nature, Long John Silver was able to lead, coerce, and manipulate many of the men who fought the American Revolution to unknowingly do his bidding, even General George Washington and John Paul Jones-all during a twenty-month period in which the naval hero disappeared from history. You will watch Pirate Captain Joshua Smoot's life transition as successes and failures twist and reshape him into the man that destiny had always intended. You will also discover what happened to Long John Silver, what happened to the treasure, and what happened to Rebecca Keyes-Joshua's betrothed who was forced to banish him into slavery.
