The story recounts the author's recollections of his adventures with fellow Paris Hill Academy students Henry Scott Whitman and Fred Bartlett during the American Civil War.

Ned Myers Ned Myers (born 1793) was an American sailor. Born in Quebec as a British subject, Myers grew up in Halifax after being abandoned by his father. He moved to New York City at the age of eleven, cherishing the dream of becoming a sailor. Two years later, while serving aboard the merchant ship "Sterling", Myers would meet James Fenimore Cooper, who would later write a biography of him titled "Ned Myers, or, a Life Before the Mast" (1843). Myers rejected his status as a British subject and became an American citizen, something that would cause him trouble when he was captured by a Royal Navy warship in the summer of 1812. He was a survivor of the sinking of the USS "Scourge". However, Myers would live through the War of 1812, meeting with Cooper in 1843 for the authoring of his biography.
