| Notes: | Number 4 (of 11) in the Horatio Hornblower series. The book begins with the first 40% percent of a novel that Forester was working on when he died called, Hornblower During the Crisis. The events take place immediately after Hornblower and the Hotspur. Next comes a short story called "Hornblower's Temptation" which covers Hornblower's assignment to take control of a prisoner who is being court-martialed for desertion. The action takes place after Mr. Midshipman Hornblower and before Lieutenant Hornblower. Finally comes another short story called "The Last Encounter," during which Hornblower is already a lord and an admiral. |
