''The Crew of the Water Wagtail'' is a novel written by R.M. Ballantyne. It tells the story of a group of young boys who embark on a sailing adventure aboard the titular boat, the Water Wagtail. The boys, led by their captain, Tom, face a series of challenges and obstacles as they navigate the waters around the British Isles. Along the way, they encounter dangerous storms, treacherous pirates, and unexpected allies. As they learn to work together and rely on each other’s strengths, the boys develop a deep bond and a sense of camaraderie that will stay with them for the rest of their lives. Filled with action, adventure, and heartwarming moments, ''The Crew of the Water Wagtail'' is a classic tale of friendship and perseverance that will captivate readers of all ages.''It is evident that the land over there is peopled with savages who, probably, never saw white men before. If we treat these young fellows kindly, and send them away with gifts in their hands, we shall, no doubt, make friends of the savages. If we treat them ill, or kill them, their relations will come over, mayhap in swarms, and drive us into the sea. I drop the Swinton law of might being right, and ask you who are now the law-makers -- which is it to be -- kindness or cruelty?''This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
