One of the 28th (MP3 audio)
Here’s a rare and wonderful find for your listening pleasure — a great dramatization of master story-teller G. A. Henty’s classic book of pirates and the War of 1812, “One of the 28th”. Follow the adventures of young Ralph Conway as he becomes the captive of “King of the Sea” Captain Kelly, aboard the deadly pirate ship “Belle Marie”. This is actually a self-contained dramatization of the first half of Henty’s book. In the full text, young Conway goes on to participate in the War of 1812 and the Battle of Waterloo, but here we have his pirate story — and a fun one it is, full of history and excitement!
