"Bahama Bill, Mate of the Wrecking Sloop Sea-Horse" by T. Jenkins Hains is a novel written in the early 20th century. This adventure story focuses on the character Bahama Bill, a powerful and skilled diver serving as the mate of the wrecking sloop Sea-Horse, as he navigates through the treacherous waters of the Great Bahama Bank in search of sunken treasures. The book promises a blend of maritime adventure, perilous encounters with sharks, and the allure of hidden riches, setting the stage for tense explorations at sea. The opening of the novel introduces a dramatic scene in which the sloop Sea-Horse arrives at the wreck of the brig Bulldog, which has sunk after striking a coral reef. The crew, including the giant mate Bahama Bill, prepares to dive for rumored treasures aboard the wreck. As they strategize their approach, Bahama Bill expresses a deep-seated fear of sharks, hinting at the dangers lurking beneath the calm waters. The crew, motivated by potential riches, sets off into the depths while the tension mounts over the possible presence of formidable predators. This vivid introduction draws readers into a world of danger, adventure, and the relentless pursuit of fortune on the high seas. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
