The year was 1710. Three teenaged boys stood on the deck of the ship, waving farewell to England. Henry came from a poor family, but he was determined to succeed. William's family was rich, but William had wasted everything that he had been given. The last, Philip, was mysterious; he kept his feelings to himself.
