Excerpt from Mirabel's Island

Some men are born to command. When among their fellows, they lead; when peril must be met alone, they marshal the forces of the soul.

All night long David Lindsay had been fighting a rearguard action against pursuing seas scourged to frenzy by an equinoctial gale; now the dawn had brought a forlorn hope, and with fine courage he mustered the last remnants of his strength for a crisis which apparently could have only one issue.
