Product info

<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Called as gripping and realistic a sea tale as you are likely to run across by the <i>New York Times, </i>C. S. Forester's <i>Beat to Quarters</i> finds Hornblower faced with a near-impossible mission off the coast of Nicaragua. </b><br> June 1808, somewhere west of Nicaragua -- a site suitable for spectacular sea battles. The Admiralty has ordered Captain Horatio Hornblower, now in command of the thirty-six-gun HMS <i>Lydia</i>, to form an alliance against the Spanish colonial government with an insane Spanish landowner; to find a water route across the Central American isthmus; and to take, sink, burn or destroy the fifty-gun Spanish ship of the line <i>Natividad</i> or face court-martial. A daunting enough set of orders -- even if the happily married captain were not woefully distracted by the passenger he is obliged to take on in Panama: Lady Barbara Wellesley.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>C. S. Forester (1899-1966) wrote many highly acclaimed novels, including the eleven-volume Hornblower saga and <i>The African Queen</i>.
