The Lively Lady is a novel about the War of 1812 and tells the story of U.S. sea captain Richard Nason as he is captured by the British and sent to Dartmoor Prison. The Lively Lady (the name of a privateering vessel) is an adventure, as well as a story of courage while, at the same time, an account of the brutal wartime incarceration of Americans by the British (Dartmoor Prison), and the power of love (Emily Ransome and Richard Nason). 

With this book, Roberts continues the evolution of the Nason family from Arundle, Maine, that originated in Arundle with the invasion of Quebec and continued through the New York escapades with Rabble in Arms.
