As the American Revolution rages on the mainland, the British Navy prepares for action at sea. Against a growing fleet of Americans and French privateers, the navy must maintain its blockade of Washington's vital military supplies. Caught up in the turmoil, junior officer Richard Bolitho finds himself having to make momentous decisions in the heat of battle-decisions that could affect the lives of many men and, perhaps, even the fate of nations.
Lovers of fine nautical fiction, such as fans of Patrick O'Brian, C.S. Forester, and Capt. Frederick Marryat, will be delighted to meet a valiant new hero-Richard Bolitho-and follow his exciting (and historically authentic) adventures.
