Originally published in 1931, Smuggler's Luck recounts the adventures of a Nantucket boy during the American Revolution. Nantucket in those lean and hazardous years lay between the devil and the deep blue sea, with the British navy ready with ruthless retaliations against the islanders for any favor shown the Patriot cause. The Patriots, on the other hand, threatened to cut off supplies to the islanders if they sided with the British. 
In this story Edouard Stackpole, the late dean of Nantucket Historians, chronicles that exciting and perilous era through the experiences of young Timothy Pinkham and the Stormy Petrel. In a yarn that has entertained and inspired traders for over seventy years, Timothy's adventures, afloat and ashore, involve a voyage to the Caribbean, mysterious doings in the hideouts of secertive islander Keziah Coffin, and high-steaks politics involving Tories, Patriots and even the Continental Congress.
