- Captain Geordie Crowninshield - Sails Crowninshield family ships to ports from the West Indies to East Asia until his father calls him back to shore.
- Captain Jacob Crowninshield - Brings the first elephant to America and makes his fortune.
- Captain Nathaniel Silsbee - Defies every obstacle to rise from obscurity to captain his own ship.
Meanwhile, women shape their roles in new ways.

- Lizzie Rowell - Arrives in Salem with desperation, determination, and dreams.
