Obstinate and spoiled at first, Harvey in due course learns diligence and responsib... more »ility and earns the camaraderie of the seamen, who treat him as one of their own. A true test of character, Harveys months aboard the Were Here provide a delightful glimpse of life at sea and well-told morals of discipline, empathy, and self- reliance.
