Chapter 1
Alexander Ramsay Jr is travelling back to New York by sea after spending a fun two months in India with his Uncle Ralph. He is enjoying the voyage and proud of the fact he has not been seasick at all. As they are preparing to leave port in Arabia, Alec sees four men attempting to lead a wild black stallion up the gangplank onto the ship. Eventually, after a long struggle, they manage to wrestle him into a stall but the stallion hates being contained and every night the passengers can hear him kicking and trying to escape.
