The main character in this book is young boy name Nat Bowditch. Right away at the beginning of the book you find out that Nat's family has fallen upon hard times, a little wile ago Nat's fathers boat ran aground and on that same day the war started. A little while later Nat starts to go to school you find out that Nat is amazingly smart. He fully expects to go to Harvard until he becomes an apprentice at the
chandlery where he has to work for 9 years. The whole time he is at the chandlery he is still learning on his own, he learns math, science and also Latin. once his nine years are over he stays in his town for a while but than gets hired on a boat crew. The rest of the story his about him and how he learns and teaches stuff.
