This carefully crafted ebook: "HARRIGAN! (Adventure Classic)" is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents.
As World War One is about to break out, we find our heros in the mean streets of Honolulu, from where we follow them on the open seas, to a deserted island, back on the seas, and finally, to Central America. The pair of main characters are two men, a Scottish sailor and an Irish landlubber who are similar to the point that they hate each other. They are in a constant feud over a woman, but very often have to collaborate in order to survive troubles, such as shipwrecks, finding food and water on a deserted island, standing up to a street mob or outwitting savage mutineers.
Frederick Schiller Faust (1892-1944) was an American author known primarily for his thoughtful and literary Westerns under the pen name Max Brand. Prolific in many genres he wrote historical novels, detective mysteries, pulp fiction stories and many more. His love for mythology was a constant source of inspiration for his fiction, and it has been speculated that these classical influences accounted in some part for his success as a popular writer. Many of his stories would later inspire films.

'Brand New' to Me!

Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2015

Verified Purchase

An enjoyable, old-fashioned yet engaging adventure story that explores the respect, admiration, and hate shared by two men who are seemingly stronger, more bullheaded, and more in quest of an adventure than any other two men on the planet, yet are each other's equal. When a woman secures the affection of both, the tension is amplified, but don't look for any steamy sex scenes in this book. It is not a love story, and even if it were, the men in this story have a certain kind of honor that would require them to beat any man silly who looked on while they loved a woman. Harrigan, though a fictitious character, would have formed a fist from the ether of Brand's imagination and broken Brand's nose for even thinking about it. If you need that kind of page-turning gewgaw, look elsewhere.

I had never heard of this author. Let's just say he was 'Brand new' to me (pun intended). I will be reading more of his books in the future.

Great Adventure Story!

Reviewed in the United States on March 27, 2011

This is the third Max Brand I've read and it was a surprise. I always thought he was a Western writer and most of this book takes place aboard a small ship. Harrigan meets up with McTee in Hawaii when he sees him in a fight with a group of sailors and jumps in to help. When they see the police arrive the two manage to escape and part ways with only a word or two. Walking around the docks, Harrigan impulsively jumps aboard a small steamer just as it leaves port. Much to his surprise, McTee is Captain and proceeds to attempt to "break" Harrigan.

So begins the adventure which includes a shipwreck, mutiny, and of course a girl that they both fall for. I was engrossed throughout the whole book and read it without pause for food, drink, or sleep (much less work). Some readers may not like it but the book ends with a twist and I loved it.

Max Brand-non western

Reviewed in the United States on May 17, 2014

Max Brand is generally known as a writer of western adventure stories. Harrigan is a unique departure from this gandre. A "jolly good" sea story- with the same vivid description of settings and characters associated with Brand's westerns. The vivid descriptive writing makes the reader feel they are close observers to the action. Although somewhat far fetched as a romantic novel- the interaction between the male heros is truly memorable. To all Max Brand fans and sea adventure readers----this is a good one!

This is the first book I have read is about seafarring(spelling?) people. I thought it was a western. I thought the book was well written so I gave it four stares. The story ending was unexpected

Great sea story! You'll love it if you like stories of rough men and rough seas.

Two rough men who love the same woman. Thrown into each other's path where one has absolute power and the other only his strength and his unconquerable spirit, who will survive and who will win the hand of the fair lady is a tale well told and guaranteed to hold your interest until the very last sentence. Thank you, Max Brand

You seldom get 2 larger than life characters. But with a fiendish captain that can make them both flinch. Wow!

Did I forget the token girl that can play them all and who gets her? Guess you'll have to read it.
