dbo:abstract
  • Nightbirds on Nantucket is a children's novel by Joan Aiken, first published in 1966. Taking place in an alternate history, the story presents the further adventures of Dido Twite, an eleven-year-old Victorian tomboy, aboard a whaling ship and in Nantucket. The novel is the third in the Wolves Chronicles, a series of books set in a fictional 19th century in which the Stuart kings were never ousted by William of Orange; a key plot driver (from Black Hearts in Battersea) is the efforts of "Hanoverians" to overthrow "King James III" and his heirs. Nightbirds on Nantucket is the second novel to feature Dido Twite and the first in which she is the main character.The UK editions and their covers were initially illustrated by Pat Marriott, whose moody pen and ink drawings were used for most of the Wolves Chronicles, and several other Joan Aiken books.
