"The War Maker: Being the True Story of Captain George B. Boynton" by Horace Smith is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book recounts the life of Captain George B. Boynton, a soldier of fortune and adventurer known for his exploits across the globe, from participating in conflicts to running blockade operations during the Civil War. The narrative promises a gripping adventure filled with daring escapades and encounters that reveal the character of this remarkable individual. The beginning of the narrative introduces Captain Boynton as a man whose adventurous spirit drives him to pursue excitement around the world, often in the face of danger. We learn about his upbringing in New York and how his early life was marked by a rebellious spirit and a thirst for adventure. From a young age, Boynton dreamt of a life at sea and yearned to escape the mundane existence provided by his family. After enlisting at the onset of the Civil War, he finds himself engaged in intense battles and risky undertakings, encountering spies and navigating through chaotic political landscapes. The opening sets the stage for an intriguing exploration of his audacious character and the tumultuous events that weave throughout his life's journey.
