About “The Wapshot Chronicle”
The Wapshots of St Botolphs include Captain Leander Wapshot, a venerable sea-dog and would-be suicide; his licentious older son Moses; and Moses's adoring younger brother Coverly. Tragic and funny, this family narrative is partly based on the author's adolescence in New England.
