In this gripping tale of turmoil and triumph on the high seas,
Horatio Hornblower emerges from his apprenticeship as midshipman to
face new responsibilities thrust upon him by the fortunes of war
between Napoleon and Spain. Enduring near-mutiny, bloody
hand-to-hand combat with Spanish seamen, deck-splintering sea
battles, and the violence and horror of life on the fighting ships
of the Napoleonic Wars, the young lieutenant distinguishes himself
in his first independent command. He also faces an adventure unique
in his experience: Maria.
