Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Second War With England: Sundry Papers
The Enterprise now tacked to the south and ran out to the open sea and was followed by the Boxer as if in chase - both standing out a few miles west of Monhegan. Such was the meeting of the combatants - the first stage of the engagement It took place not off Portland, but nearly forty miles east, at Pema quid. After those first courtesies of naval warfare, the two brigs, with defiant ensigns aloft, sought the free range of the open sea for the test of ships, and guns and men.
