In good condition Hard to get BookEvery man has a journey to make; that is man's fate, and what he learns from it is his glory. Orphans of the Wind is the story of a twelve-year-old boy, who set sail from Bristol as deck boy on the "Four Winds", a blockade-runner, whose sails and rigging were fitted by miserliness and whose cargo was powder and guns. It was Jim's fate to be a boy when the Civil War and its cruelty demanded that he should be a man.
