Summary "Frank Merriwell's Chase; Or, Exciting Times Afloat" by Burt L. Standish is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story features Frank Merriwell, a celebrated Yale athlete, who embarks on a sailing vacation aboard his yacht, the "White Wings", accompanied by friends. Their journey leads them to Belfast, Maine, where unexpected excitement unfolds, including encounters with local youths and a menacing adversary, Parker Flynn, who has a dangerous vendetta against Merriwell. The opening of the book establishes a vibrant setting as Frank and his friends admire the picturesque town of Belfast from the water. Upon arriving, they are warmly welcomed by members of the Belfast Wheelmen, highlighting Frank's fame and the friendly local atmosphere. However, the tone shifts when Frank catches a glimpse of Flynn, a figure from his troubled past, leading to a tense confrontation amongst the youth and foreshadowing the impending conflict. The camaraderie and lighthearted banter among Merriwell and his companions juxtapose sharply with the lurking danger, setting the stage for a thrilling adventure ahead.
