Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. In this novel by the author, we find ourselves immersed in the life of a retired sea captain, Jeremy Ammidon, fondly known as Java Head. Set in the bustling town of Salem during the latter half of the 19th century, this book takes a nostalgic look at the fading era of grand clipper ships and the personal journeys of three generations of the Ammidon family. As we follow the lives of Jeremy, his children, and especially his granddaughter Laurel, we experience the dramatic shifts in society from the golden age of seafaring to the rise of industrialism.
