Lieutenant Hornblower Author:C. S. Forester This is the seventh novel in a saga of Horatio Hornblower, in which the central character emerges from his apprenticeship as midshipman to assume the responsibilities thrust upon him by the fortunes of the war between Napoleon and Spain.
Wonderful British naval historical action book during the days of conflict with Napoleon. I have posted the entire series individually, although each book stands alone.
The whole Hornblower series is fantastic!! Great reading and writing. As are the Aubrey Maturin series and the Richard Bolitho series by Alexander Kent....all keepers!!
