Multi-million copy seller Alexander Kent, brings us another rip-roaring and riveting maritime page-turner. Fans of Patrick O'Brian and C. S. Forester will not be disappointed! 'Mr Kent is Forester's direct heir, and is rapidly showing himself an equal in the genre.' -- Sunday Times 'C. S. Forester never wrote a more exciting novel than Alexander Kent.' -- New York Times Book Review 'A splendid yarn' -- The Times 'A tale of angry passion, envy and adventure' -- Bookseller 'Boy, is this good stuff! Can hardly wait to pick up the next book' -- ***** Reader review 'The author knows how to keep the reader enthralled' -- ***** Reader review 'Hard to stop reading' -- ***** Reader review 'Couldn't put it down from start to finish' -- ***** Reader review ********************************************************************** 1778: a seminal year for the young Richard Bolitho... The American War of Independence changes to an all-out struggle for freedom from British rule - and Bolitho takes command of the Sparrow, a small, fast and well-armed sloop of war. As the pace of war increases, the Sparrow is called from one crisis to another - and when the great fleets of Britain and France convene on the Chesapeake, Bolitho has to throw aside the early dreams of his first command to find maturity in a sea battle that might decide the fate of a whole continent. Bolitho's adventures continue in To Glory We Steer.
