Captains Courageous: A Story of the Grand Banks is an 1897 novel by Rudyard Kipling that follows the adventures of fifteen-year-old Harvey Cheyne Jr., the spoiled son of a railroad tycoon, after he is saved from drowning by an American fishing schooner in the North Atlantic and is made to earn his keep as a member of the crew.
Protagonist Harvey Cheyne Jr. is the spoiled son of a wealthy California railroad magnate. Washed overboard from a transatlantic steamship and rescued by the crew of the fishing schooner We're Here, off the Grand Banks of Newfoundland, Harvey can neither persuade them to take him quickly to port, nor convince them of his wealth. Harvey accuses the captain, Disko Troop, of stealing his wallet (which is revealed to be on the deck from which Harvey fell). Troop then beats Harvey and makes it clear that he can either starve or work off the debt he owes to the crew by serving as a cabin boy.
