Enemy in Sight! by Alexander Kent
Aboard the Hyperion, Richard Bolitho sets sail with an untrained crew for blockade duty off France. Unfortunately, his superior, Commodore Mathias Pelham-Martin, is an incompetent egotist whose petty hostilities jeopardize the operation of an entire fleet.
"It's a turbulent passage from the Bay of Biscay to the Caribbean, with plenty of action along the way" -- New York Times Book Review
"The author succeeds in combining the human touch with rousing sea battles; both action scenes and characterizations are vivid." -- Library Journal
