Synopsis
Horatio Hornblower, only seventeen years old, gets his sea legs in this "absolutely compelling" ( San Francisco Chronicle ) first installment of C. S. Forester's classic naval adventure series. The year is 1793, the eve of the Napoleonic Wars, and Horatio Hornblower, a seventeen-year-old boy unschooled in seafaring and the ways of seamen, is ordered to board a French merchant ship and take command of crew and cargo for the glory of England. Though not an unqualified success, this first naval adventure teaches the young midshipman enough to launch him on a series of increasingly glorious exploits. This novel -- in which young Horatio gets his sea legs, proves his mettle, and shows the makings of the legend he will become -- is the first of the eleven swashbuckling Hornblower tales that are today regarded as classic adventure stories of the sea. "I recommend Forester to every literate I know." --Ernest Hemingway

    Arrived early and packed well. I wouldn't describe it as like new due to some minor wear on the slip cover, but it was represented perfectly in the pictures and the disc looks brand new and unused. I am 100% satisfied with my purchase and I won't hesitate to buy from VenzDeealz again in the future. Great seller! Thank you!

    Great Adventure from an Interesting Time in History

    After rewatching the A&E series on Horatio, it has been so interesting to actually read the book where so many of the series' stories was taken from. This is so well written! And very exciting! Be prepared for an adventure.

    GREAT Read

    Bought these as a late xmas gift for my Dad - he's a huge fan of the Master and Commander series. I thought this would be the next best thing. He's two books in, and loves them. Thank you again.
