It is 1793, and Alan Lewrie, swashbuckling naval hero, longs for battle. Oppressed by life as a gentleman farmer, he is only too pleased to answer the navy's call when Revolutionary France draws Britain into war. But life aboard the HMS Cockerel is marred by a malaria-stricken tyrant of a captain, and a restless crew. When the war escalates, Lewrie finds himself at the Battle of Toulon, where he meets a dashing young Napoleon Bonaparte. Outnumbered three to one, he must take on the French in a desperate bid to help the Royalists escape. With superbly drawn supporting characters and a hugely likeable hero from this popular series. Very popular on Bibliophile's Search Service, we welcome the reprint of this popular series, perfect for fans of Patrick O'Brian and George MacDonald Fraser. 380pp, paperback.
