Opis

Bertram Tambling, an expatriate from the former Confederacy, is now a veteran of two wars. Having recently survived the failure of the only republic ever attempted in Japan, he has sworn off serving any nation again. Further disillusioned by the industrialization and imperialism transforming the world around him, he turns his back on his code of honor. With a captured warship in his possession, and a misfit crew under his command, he embarks on a journey that has him sailing from one exotic port to the next. Eventually, he comes to France, which in the spring of 1870 is on the brink of war. However, before Bertram must again face the fire of rifles or cannon, he must first fight a battle that will not be fought on any field, but battled deep within himself.
