The Flag Captain by Alexander Kent
April 1797, Falmouth Bay. As France continues her bitter struggle for supremacy on land and sea, the Royal Navy receives a crippling blow at home: the Great Mutiny. Returning home after eighteen-months' service, Flag Captain Richard Bolitho finds himself at the center of the crisis.
"Writing in the dynamic style that first caused him to be compared with CS. Forester and has since marked him as a writer of superior abilities in his own right, Kent re-creates a vivid picture of the 18th-century English Navy." -- Library Journal
