Summary "Ο δεκαπενταετής πλοίαρχος" by Jules Verne is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story introduces readers to the adventures of a young boy named Dick Sand, who becomes the captain of a whaling ship named "Pilgrim." Set against a backdrop of maritime danger and exploration, the narrative promises to follow the trials and growth of its youthful protagonist. At the start of the narrative, the ship "Pilgrim," owned by a wealthy Californian shipowner, is preparing for a whaling expedition. Captain Hull and his small crew navigate towards the waters of New Zealand, where the whaling season is underway. However, unforeseen complications arise as Captain Hull faces challenges in his crew's disobedience and the shift in whale populations. The arrival of Mrs. Weldon and her son, along with their cousin, Dick Sand, introduces new dynamics as they embark on a long journey back to the Americas, bringing in elements of adventure and family longing. Verne sets the stage for a thrilling voyage, focusing on themes of courage, survival, and leadership. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
