From the Publisher
Rousing good sea adventure by a master of nautical literature. A 19th-century British Royal Navy captain, Frederick Marryat offers contemporary readers plenty of cannonfire, battle strategy, peril and passion-liberally sprinkled with wit and fine turns of phrase. A sure-fire hit for Patrick O'Brian fans!
From the Back Cover
A rollicking sea adventure, set in the time of the Napoleonic Wars, Mr. Midshipman Easy follows the escapades of a young midshipman who enters the King's service with some ideas that run badly afoul of the standards of naval discipline! The author was an actual 19th-century British naval hero who lived a saga worthy of the novels of C.S. Forester or Patrick O'Brian. Captain Frederick Marryat survived fifty naval battles and served on the crack frigate Imperieuse under Lord Cochrane - the real-life model for Horatio Hornblower and Jack Aubrey. Mr. Midshipman Easy is said to have been inspired by Cochrane's adventures as a young midshipman.
