Thrice Captive is a novel written by Arthur Griffiths and originally published in 1908. The book follows the story of a young man named John Langton who, after being falsely accused of a crime, is sent to a prison in Gibraltar. There, he is subjected to harsh treatment and abuse at the hands of the prison guards and fellow inmates.Langton eventually manages to escape with the help of a sympathetic guard, but his troubles are far from over. He is captured and taken captive by pirates, who force him to work as a slave on their ship. Langton endures terrible conditions and abuse at the hands of the pirates, but he never loses hope of one day regaining his freedom.After several years of captivity, Langton is finally rescued by a British naval vessel. He returns home to England, but finds that his troubles are far from over. He must confront his accusers and clear his name, all while dealing with the emotional scars of his captivity.Thrice Captive is a gripping and emotional tale of survival, resilience, and the human spirit. It explores themes of justice, redemption, and the power of hope in the face of adversity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
