✦ Synopsis


May, 1810 οΏ½ and thirty-nine-year-old Captain Horatio Hornblower has been handed his first ship of the line οΏ½

Though the seventy-four-gun HMS Sutherland is οΏ½the ugliest and least desirable two-decker in the NavyοΏ½ and a crew shortage means he must recruit two hundred and fifty landlubbers, Hornblower knows that by the time Sutherland and her squadron reach the blockaded Catalonian coast every seaman will do his duty. But with daring raids against the French army and navy to be made, it will take all HornblowerοΏ½s seamanship οΏ½ and stewardship οΏ½ to steer a steady course to victory and home οΏ½ This is the sixth of eleven books chronicling the adventures of C. S. ForesterοΏ½s inimitable nautical hero, Horatio Hornblower.
