(2) 4-6 Illustrated by Ian Schoenherr. When the legendary Fleiger Hollander is condemned to sail the world forever, the cook's assistant and his dog are granted immortality of a different sort. In 1896, Neb and his dog turn up in Chapelvale, where they assist a cast of colorful characters in an extended treasure hunt to uncover the title to the village. The involving story captures the details of historical small-town England and its people with great panache.
