Independent Action: Kinkaid in the North Atlantic is the first book of the Jonathan Kinkaid nautical fiction series that follows an American naval officer during the Revolutionary War and introduces our hero as he serves as First Lieutenant aboard the American frigate Randolph of 32 guns, blockaded in the port of Philadelphia during the winter of 1776-77. Tasked with orders to undertake independent action in the frigid waters of the North Atlantic against a mighty British convoy, the Lucky Randy manages to elude enemy warships long enough to transform her crew-from the crusty boatswain O'Toole to the teenage midshipman Billy Weatherby-into an effective fighting force. A story of the fury of the sea and the waste of war, of brave but fallible men and boys who find themselves in dire straits, of history and the building of character, Independent Action is fast-paced, old-fashioned, high seas adventure at its very best.
