Blood on the River
Captain Christopher Newport is the captain of the Susan Constant, and the leader of the expedition by sea. Newport lost an arm in battle with the Spanish, and he often serves as a calm and experienced leader when the gentlemen get out of control in their efforts to arrest or kill Captain Smith.
