Lord Hornblower
by C. S. Forester
Tired of the war he has waged almost his entire life, Hornblower discovers that he has been given a new mission that is particularly dangerous and suspicious; to save a man he knew as a tyrant from his team's uprising in Seine Bay. This risky adventure coincides with reports that the tide of war could be a turning point as Wellington swept the Pyrenees and the Russians moved to the Rhine hornblauer movement into the heart of the French Empire, a deadly reunion with old friends, and the terrible but glorious outcome of their own war with Napoleon.
