A Horatio Hornblower Tale of the Sea In the final instalment of the
Horatio Hornblower series we visit some lesser known adventures
across our hero's long career, including Napoleon's plans to invade
England . . . 1805 and Horatio Hornblower is in possession of
confidential dispatches from Bonaparte after a vicious hand-to-hand
encounter with a French brig. The admiralty rewards Hornblower by
sending him on a dangerous espionage mission that will light the
powder trail leading to the battle of Trafalgar . . . Hornblower
and the Crisis was unfinished at the time of Forester's death, but
the author left notes - included here - telling us how the tale
would end. Also included are two further stories - Hornblower and
the Widow McCool and The Last Encounter - that tell of Hornblower
as a very young and very old man, respectively. This is the
eleventh and final book chronicling the adventures of C. S.
Forester's inimitable nautical hero, Horatio Hornblower. 'The true
master of the genre' Boris Johnson
