The Second Horatio Hornblower Tale of the Sea The nineteenth
century dawns and the Napoleonic Wars rage as Horatio Hornblower is
ordered to the Caribbean and dangerous waters. New Lieutenant
Hornblower's latest ship is HMS Renown, a sound vessel whose
captain is unfortunately of rather unsound mind. When ordered to
attack a Spanish anchorage, the chain of command breaks down and it
requires all of Hornblower's seafaring cunning to avert disaster.
As cannons pound and splinters fly aboard their beleaguered vessel,
and the men are forced to engage at close quarters, the young
lieutenant knows that to save his ship and crew he must prove
himself a master of the high seas . . . This is the second of
eleven books chronicling the adventures of C. S. Forester's
inimitable nautical hero, Horatio Hornblower. Featuring an
exclusive introduction by Bernard Cornwell, creator of Sharpe 'One
of the best. Everyone interested in war, or in human nature, should
read this fascinating tale' The Times Literary Supplement
