N2  - "Paul Jones" by Molly Elliot Seawell is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. This work captures the life and adventures of the famed naval officer John Paul Jones, whose contributions were pivotal in establishing the U.S. Navy. The narrative introduces Paul Jones as a determined and courageous young lieutenant in the Continental Navy, delving into his naval battles against the British and his deep sense of patriotism.  The opening of the novel presents a vivid scene in January 1776, focusing on Paul Jones at the Philadelphia docks as he anticipates his upcoming command of a naval ship. Through his reflections, the reader gains insight into his modest beginnings as the son of a Scottish gardener and his fierce commitment to the American cause. As he sets out to enlist the help of a young boy named Danny Dixon, who wishes to fight alongside him, the foundation of companionship begins to form. Jones's interactions highlight his leadership qualities and the early challenges that await him in his quest for glory at sea, setting the tone for the unfolding excitement and adventure in the narrative.
