This is a great story of a boy, Harvey who has never done any work of any kind. His father is a multi-millionaire, never training his son; and his mother a lovely lady who just spoils their son. On a trip to Europe by ship, he falls overboard and is picked up by a schooner, the We're Here. On board the schooner Harvey learns how to work, and he and the Captain's son, Dan, become best friends. Eventually, the We're Here puts into port, and Harvey and his parents are reunited. This is a story of the sea, and of men who earned their living from it, of what it meant to them.

I think that everyone should read this story.
