SynopsisPortsmouth 1782. Now captain of the frigate Phalarope Bolitho deals with a mutinous crew and fights in the Battle of Saintes., Portsmouth, 1782. His Britannic Majesty's frigate, Phalarope, is ordered to assist the hard-pressed squadrons in the Caribbean. Aboard is her new commander--Richard Bolitho. To all appearances the Phalarope is everything a young captain could wish for, but beneath the surface she is a deeply unhappy ship--her wardroom torn by petty greed and ambition, her deckhands suspected of cowardice under fire and driven to near-mutiny by senseless ill-treatment., Portsmouth 1782. Now captain of the frigate Phalarope, Bolitho deals with a mutinous crew and fights in the Battle of Saintes.

Centerpiece of the Bolitho Series
The compassion and values of the series' hero, Richard Bolitho, are clearly and compellingly portrayed in this book. Key figures like Allday & Herrick come into the narrative, and the action is comtinuous. The battle scenes are wonderful, and the connection with a critical historical battle is believable. A quick, interesting "good read."Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Good British Navy read during Napoleonic wars and American Revolution
Anyone who has made it through Patrick Obrien's Aubrey Maturin series, and wants to go to a lighter weight version of events in the same period, should seek out the Bolitho novel series.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
