| Notes: | Number 5 (of 11) in the Horatio Hornblower series. Hornblower's ship Atropos springs a leak during ceremonies honoring Lord Nelson. Hornblower has no need for the humiliation that would visit him should he allow the admiral's body to sink to the bottom of the Thames! Then Hornblower seeks a sunken treasure in Turkish waters ... a task made more harrowing when he sails his outgunned sloop into battle with a great Spanish frigate. — Amazon |
