This historical seafaring feast from the 1860s starts with a bet. If Captain Richards' clipper Seawitch beats Captain Kemball's Erl King home to England from China, then Richards will get the hand of Kemball's daughter, Hannah, in marriage. No sooner in the race, however, than Kemball is killed by pirates, and Hannah herself takes command.
