Voyage of Midnight

(4) 4-6 Orphan Philip finds a home with a caring older couple in New Orleans, but when he stumbles across his uncle, a ship's captain, Philip joins the crew without a second thought. The plot relies too much on coincidence and Philip's naiveté, but it does provide some interesting information about the slave trade. Readers will enjoy the fast-paced adventure story. Bib., glos.
