Love Afloat: A Story Of The American Navy is a novel written by Francis Henry Sheppard and originally published in 1875. The book follows the story of a young sailor named Charles who falls in love with a beautiful and wealthy young woman named Edith. Charles is a member of the American Navy and is stationed on a ship that is sent on a mission to protect American interests in the Pacific. Edith, who is also on the ship, becomes enamored with Charles and they begin a secret romance. However, their love is threatened by the disapproval of Edith's father, who believes that Charles is not a suitable match for his daughter. As the ship continues its mission, Charles and Edith must navigate their love in the midst of danger and uncertainty. The novel explores themes of love, class, and duty, and provides a glimpse into life on a naval ship in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
