Call it Courage - The part of the book that we read for!

Hello people!

As you all know already, I am reading Call it courage, a novel by Armstrong Sperry.
But today I am here to explain the climax of this particular book. I would say that it is a bit complicated because there are a lot of conflicts and then in the last ten [pages the cannibals come to sacrifice Mafutu (did they fail?)

So the actual climax in my eyes (or opinion) is when Mafutu saw the black ships coming forward, arriving at daybreak, seizing him and finally..!

(sorry, can't spoil the story)
\(did he escape?)

OK, OK, let's get real.

Mafutu jumped on his beautiful (just crafted) canoe and tries to escape. The cannibals chase him, but the sea is in his favor. The cannibals (or obvious antagonists) really try to chase but Mafutu's canoe is just too good for them to even try catch up. The cannibals needed to sacrifice something,,, and they did not want to miss this opportunity. They tried hooking on to his craft but it did not work. they tried human propellers but it did not work resulting that Mafutu peacefully sailed back to his own island; Hikueru and he was awarded a boar-toothed necklace, for the courage he had shown.

They try, but they failed as I would say.


Thank you for reading this post and my last one of this School Quarter!

  2. Dear Omsoc Gnilhuk,

    Nice post you have there! I find this an intriguing book, and it
    seems to be action packed. IF: Ferdinand Magellan was eaten by cannibals!
