The Great Gamble by Dudley Pope
On 2nd April, 1801, the Royal Navy anchored a few hundred yards off the Copenhagen waterfront and engaged the Danes in a brief but bloody battle. This book gives an account of that battle, as well as its background, its intrigues and its ramifications.
Dudley Pope, author of the best-selling Ramage series and Life in Nelson's Navy, needs little introduction. After service during WWII in the Merchant Navy, he went on to work for fifteen years in Fleet Street before settling down to become a full-time writer. In 1965 he set sail for the West Indies where he lived on his boat until his death in 1997.
