Summary:
Alan
Lewrie
is now
commander
of his own ship, HMS Jester, which participates in the spectacular British victory over the French at the famous battle known as the Glorious First of June. From there
Lewrie
is dispatched to the Mediterranean to inform Admiral Hood of the French defeat. Under Hood'
s
inspired leadership,
Lewrie
assists in the conquest of Corsica, but Hood is soon replaced by the maddeningly cautious Admiral Hotham. Only alongside one Horatio Nelson (not yet an admiral) does
Lewrie
again find his chance to be of service in a series of fierce battles along the French coast. And it is along that same coast that he hears once again of an old enemy, the French
commander
Guillaume Choundas, and knows that destiny will soon bring their ships together.
