Summary "Captured at Tripoli: A Tale of Adventure" by Percy F. Westerman is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows two boys, Hugh Frazer and Gerald Kit-by, who end up caught in the adventure of war as they find themselves aboard a transport ship heading towards Tripoli. They become embroiled in military conflict and must navigate the trials of war, including capture and survival. The opening of the tale introduces Hugh and Gerald, two spirited adolescents who are eager to witness the action of the war they have heard about while staying in Naples. After a twist of fate leads them to board the wrong ship, they inadvertently become prisoners as the transport heads towards Tripoli. The narrative immediately sets the tone for high-stakes adventure, as the boys, initially filled with excitement, soon find themselves facing perilous situations and substantial moral challenges amid the chaos of war, signaling a journey that will significantly change their lives.
