Synopsis
Daring and dashing, Thomas, Lord Cochrane led an extraordinary life. This bold commander, whose exploits far exceeded those of any fictional counterpart, was dubbed the "Sea Wolf" by no less than Napoleon himself. More than just a colorful military figure, however, Cochrane entered Parliament, became a radical reformer, and fought official corruption...earning powerful enemies in the process. They plotted revenge--and very nearly succeeded--but Cochrane's final triumph as a conquering hero remains one of the most amazing tales ever told.

Cochrane : Britannia's Last Sea-king
Seller: June Samaras, STREETSVILLE, ON, Canada
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. Reprint. The controversial Thomas Cochrane, known to many as the "Sea Wolf", is second only to Nelson himself among the heroes and legends of the Royal Navy. Renowned for his daring, skill, and enterprise, Cochrane was much revered by his men and, remarkably enough, later went on to command ships in the navies of Chile, Brazil, Peru, and Greece, providing outstanding leadership in their struggles for freedom. As a Radical Member of Parliament and a staunch supporter of reform in its darkest hour, Cochrane stood on principle rather than on practicality and constantly found himself at the center of political firestorms.383p.
