Publisher's Note A spellbinding true story traces the lives of the greatest sea captains of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries including Lord Cochrane, Charles Brisbane, and Nisbet Willoughby, whose daring exploits such as blockading ports, intercepting the enemy's trade, and protecting merchant ships from attacks, had a profound impact on maritime history.
Industry Reviews "This extraordinary knowledge of the English captains, ships, crews, tactics, and opponents produces a narrative full of authentic details that should help readers encounter this long-extinct age." Kirkus Reviews (04/15/2001)
