Summary "Fitz the Filibuster" by George Manville Fenn is a novel written in the late 19th century. This nautical adventure follows young midshipman Fitzgerald Burnett, known as Fitz, as he embarks on a perilous mission aboard a warship patrolling the Channel. Fitz soon finds himself embroiled in a struggle against smugglers in a Central American conflict, experiencing both the camaraderie of his crewmates and the tension of naval combat. At the start of the narrative, we encounter Fitz aboard his gunboat, eager for action and frustrated with the monotony of his duties. His desire to learn the ropes of naval life leads him to request permission to join an armed crew on a nighttime operation— a thrilling opportunity that quickly escalates into an unexpected adventure. As the mission unfolds, Fitz is determined to prove his worth, but a sudden turn of events leaves him knocked unconscious during an encounter that will significantly change his fate, stranding him on a mysterious schooner in unfamiliar waters.
