Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Bill Bolton—Flying Midshipman" by Lieutenant Noel Sainsbury, Jr. is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Bill Bolton, a young midshipman, who finds himself in the midst of a hurricane while piloting a seaplane with his father. As they navigate through a perilous storm, they eventually crash and become entangled in a dangerous adventure on an uninhabited island filled with criminals and peril. At the start of the book, readers are introduced to Bill Bolton and his father as they struggle to maintain control of their amphibious plane against the ferocious winds of an impending hurricane. After managing a harrowing landing on the Bay of Florida, they experience a sudden turn of events that leads to their capture by armed men upon reaching the shore. The opening sets the stage for their subsequent entrapment in a sinister plot involving kidnapping and forced labor, drawing intriguing connections to themes of resilience, bravery, and the fight for freedom amidst overwhelming adversities as Bill grapples with his situation.
