Summary

"Under the Chilian Flag: A Tale of War between Chili and Peru" by Harry Collingwood is a historical adventure that throws two young Englishmen into the heart of a South American conflict. Tired of mistreatment aboard a British nitrate ship, Jim Douglas and Terence O'Meara leap at the chance for a fresh start when they arrive in a Valparaiso brewing with the tensions of war. Witnessing the city's agitation, they decide to throw their lot in with the Chilian Navy, trading the familiar Union Jack for the promise of excitement and fortune as they navigate the dangers and battles of the war between Chili and Peru.
