"A Drake by George!" by John Trevena is a comical tale set in the village of Highfield where the imposing Captain Francis Drake, accompanied by his wife, his indolent nephew George, and an array of oddball characters attempts to establish his authority, which causes hilarious chaos around town. Arriving with grand plans, the Captain's domineering nature clashes with the village's quirky residents, leading to humorous conflicts and misunderstandings as he tries to leave his mark on the place, all while unexpected family dynamics create further comedic opportunities.
