nHornblower leads a ship into the Mediterranean in this intense and exciting installment (New York Times) of C. S. Foresters beloved naval adventure saga. In the wake of a humbling incident aboard a canal boat in the Cotswolds, young Captain Horatio Hornblower arrives in London to take command of the Atropos, a 22-gun sloop barely large enough to require a captain. Her first assignment under Hornblowers command is as flagship for the funeral procession of Lord Nelson. nSoon Atropos is part of the Mediterranean Fleets harassment of Napoleon, recovering treasure that lies deep in Turkish waters and boldly challenging a Spanish frigate several times her size. At the center of each adventure is Hornblower, Foresters most inspired creation, whose blend of cautious preparation and spirited execution dazzles friend and foe alike. nI find Hornblower admirable, vastly entertaining. --Winston Churchill nHornblower leads a ship into the Mediterranean in this intense and exciting installment (New York Times) of C.
