Description:
On New Year's Day, 1896, the enormous steel-hulled four-masted square rigger Neptune's Car slides down the ways of a Maine shipyard. Undertaking a torturous maiden voyage around the Horn to San Francisco, her crew are driven to murder and near mutiny by the brutal reality of life below deck on a "hellship" during the age of sail. Meanwhile, the owner's daughter and a party of gilded aristocrats enjoy an idyllic cruise through the South Pacific aboard the luxurious private yacht Atalanta. As both Atalanta and Neptune's Car arrive in San Francisco on the eve of the BryanMcKinley presidential election, the increasing chasm between the haves and have-nots threatens to erupt into riot and insurrection.
