520 _a"The Quest of the 'Golden Hope': A Seventeenth Century Story of Adventure" by Percy F. Westerman is a historical adventure novel written in the early 20th century. It revolves around the escapades of young Clifford Hammond and his interactions with Captain Jeremy Miles during a time of rebellion and political turmoil in 17th century England. The story delves into themes of bravery, loyalty, and the pursuit of treasure amidst historical intrigue. At the start of the story, we are introduced to Clifford Hammond, a 16-year-old boy living on the fringes of the New Forest during the poignant events of July 1685, when a rebellion led by Duke Monmouth is underway. The narrative quickly unfolds as Clifford and his sister Constance encounter Captain Jeremy Miles, who is fleeing from soldiers after participating in the rebellion. This chance meeting leads to a harrowing struggle as they assist Captain Miles while he evades capture, revealing their family's complex history and the looming threats they face. The subsequent chapters promise further adventures involving mystery, treasure hunting, and the risks inherent in pursuing a life at sea, particularly in the context of Captain Miles' prior knowledge of a fabled treasure ship, the "Madre de Dios".
