Synopsis
In the days immediately following Waterloo, the British fleet confronts a new threat: Algerian pirates preying on hapless merchant ships. Adam Bolitho, Admiral Richard Bolitho's nephew and heir, finds himself in command of Unrivalled, a new kind of frigate—sleek, fast, and heavily armed.

About the Author
Alexander Kent, pen name of Douglas Edward Reeman, joined the British Navy at 16, serving on destroyers and small craft during World War II, and eventually rising to the rank of lieutenant. He has taught navigation to yachtsmen and has served as a script adviser for television and films. His books have been translated into nearly two dozen languages.
From AudioFile
This remarkable reading of one entry in Kent's seagoing Bolitho series is excellent. Michael Jayston reads a story full of action and painful romance--his pace is measured, and yet his British voice breathes intensity and conviction. Like C.S. Forester's Hornblower, Admiral Bolitho is loosely patterned after the real historical figure, Lord Nelson, down to an adulterous scandal and manner of death. This book concentrates on a nephew, Captain Adam Bolitho, and the listener cannot put it down. D.R.W. © AudioFile 2002, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
