And Last but not Least, it’s the 6th Title in the Goldtown Adventures Series!
It’s still 1864. The California gold rush is over, but 12-year-old Jem and his sister, Ellie, are sure they can pan more gold from Cripple Creek. With Pa’s new job as sheriff of lawless Goldtown, their miner friend, Strike-it-rich Sam, and their cousin, Nathan, there’s plenty of adventure for everyone in this middle-grade series for ages 9-13.
After transporting Nathan to a hospital in San Francisco, Jem is shanghaied along the San Francisco waterfront, and must “learn the ropes” of a sailing vessel and endure seasickness, storms, and rough sailors while looking for a way to jump ship and return home.
