Adventure has a new name! Hailing from the poorest classes of 1700's England, Clarence Drummond bursts out into the world! A Hero for our times! His strong and dynamic character proves a match for every challenge. From the stifling Class-System of Old England, to the Barbary Pirates who seek to kill him, to the worst storms of Atlantic Ocean and the Caste System and greed of India, all the way to the worst criminal elements back home, nothing overcomes Clarence Drummond! Hailed a hero by the common people, Kings and Emperors alike and as at home on the quarterdecks of the greatest sailing ships as in the darkest jungles of India he remains, always, a young man of courage, fairness and compassion. Feel the spray of the sea, hear the cries of the Corsairs, raise your sword and dive into the depths of Adventure!He dares what others won't! Here is a young man who rejects the boundaries and limitations of his age and repeatedly reaches across economic, racial, and religious divides himself, to make his world a better place. In the process he turns the world on its head. He gathers friends from among the poorest of the poor and richest of the rich! From the downtrodden he creates giants and brothers. He learns from the best and wisest, and seeks to liberate every race and nation, even from their own prisons. Honored with the name "Brother of the Tiger" for his courage against all odds he even has to overcome the arbitrary barriers of the world to find love! Though still a young man Clarence Drummond challenges the reader to look at life with a completely new perspective, blind to the differences that divide us and alive to all that is good and possible!
