Cap'n Dan's Daughter is a novel written by Joseph C. Lincoln. The story is set in Cape Cod, Massachusetts, and follows the life of young Ruth Howland, who is the daughter of a well-known sea captain, Cap'n Dan. After her father's death, Ruth is left to take care of her mother and their home. However, she is determined to follow in her father's footsteps and become a captain herself. Ruth's dream of becoming a captain is met with resistance from the conservative members of her community who believe that women should not be involved in the dangerous world of seafaring. Despite the obstacles, Ruth perseveres and eventually gains the respect of her peers. Along the way, she also falls in love with a young sailor named Nat Hammond, but their relationship is threatened by Nat's past and his connection to a group of smugglers. Cap'n Dan's Daughter is a heartwarming story of determination, love, and the challenges faced by women in a male-dominated society. It provides a glimpse into the maritime culture of Cape Cod in the early 20th century and highlights the strength and resilience of its people.Daniel Dott! she gasped. Daniel Dott!
