Love Afloat: A Story Of The American Navy is a novel written by Francis Henry Sheppard and originally published in 1875. The story follows the adventures of a young sailor named Jack Hildreth, who serves on board the USS Constitution during the mid-19th century. Along the way, Jack falls in love with a beautiful young woman named Lucy, who is the daughter of a wealthy merchant. However, their relationship is complicated by the fact that Lucy's father disapproves of Jack's lowly status as a sailor. As the story unfolds, Jack must navigate the challenges of life at sea and the obstacles to his romance with Lucy. The novel is a vivid portrayal of life in the American Navy during the mid-19th century, and it provides an engaging and entertaining glimpse into the world of sailors, ships, and romance on the high seas.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
