'Paints a vivid picture of life aboard the mighty ship-of-the-line'
- Daily Express Thrilled at his first command, a little brig sloop
called Teazer, Thomas Kydd must race to bring his ship to battle
readiness - he is desperately needed to defend Malta against
Barbary corsairs, ferocious privateers and the French who are
frantically trying to rescue the remnants of their army in the
Levant. But his jubilation does not last long - peace is suddenly
declared and Kydd is left ashore on half pay. A rare chance gives
him the opportunity to once again go to sea. He sets sail as
captain of a convict transport for the penal colony in New South
Wales - and challenges that will test both his seamanship and
humanity to the limit. ****************** What readers are saying
