  • The Aubrey-Maturin Chronicles: Master and Commander / Post Captain / Hms Surprise Volume 1 Ebook
    FREETHE AUBREY-MATURIN CHRONICLES: MASTER AND COMMANDER / POST CAPTAIN / HMS SURPRISE VOLUME 1 EBOOK Patrick O'Brian,Robert Hardy | 9 pages | 01 May 2009 | HarperCollins Publishers | 9780007319305 | English | London, United Kingdom The Ships of Jack Aubrey Like any stout-hearted Royal Navy midshipman or lieutenant, Jack Aubrey hungered for glory and for command of a ship. Indeed, the two were vitally connected, for the first was a path to the second and the latter -- with luck -- could bring the former. In the very first chapter of the first volume in Patrick O'Brian's magnificent series of novels about Jack Aubrey and his friend Stephen Maturin, Aubrey obtained his first real command on April 19, And glory followed. This web page explores all of Jack Aubrey's vessels from the small sloop-of-war HMS Sophie of which he takes command at the beginning of Master and Commander through more than a dozen other sloops, frigates and ships-of-the-line until we leave him in The Final, Unfinished Voyage of Jack Aubrey on the ship-of-the-line Suffolk, having raised his flag as rear admiral. And for any who might protest at the imprecision in the title of this page, the Sophie being only a brig and thus not truly a ship by the definition of the sea, I must fall back upon the sage words of that eminent nautical authority, Stephen Maturin: "Let us not be pedantical, for all love! For more than a decade I have been an avid fan of the nautical novels of Patrick O'Brian, an enthusiasm growing out of my long-standing interest in naval warships of the "Age of Fighting Sail" perhaps first sparked by childhood visits to "Old Ironsides".

  • Hornblower's Ships
    Names of Ships from the Hornblower Books. Introduction Hornblower’s biographer, C S Forester, wrote eleven books covering the most active and dramatic episodes of the life of his subject. In addition, he also wrote a Hornblower “Companion” and the so called three “lost” short stories. There were some years and activities in Hornblower’s life that were not written about before the biographer’s death and therefore not recorded. However, the books and stories that were published describe not only what Hornblower did and thought about his life and career but also mentioned in varying levels of detail the people and the ships that he encountered. Hornblower of course served on many ships but also fought with and against them, captured them, sank them or protected them besides just being aware of them. Of all the ships mentioned, a handful of them would have been highly significant for him. The Indefatigable was the ship on which Midshipman and then Acting Lieutenant Hornblower mostly learnt and developed his skills as a seaman and as a fighting man. This learning continued with his experiences on the Renown as a lieutenant. His first commands, apart from prizes taken, were on the Hotspur and the Atropos. Later as a full captain, he took the Lydia round the Horn to the Pacific coast of South America and his first and only captaincy of a ship of the line was on the Sutherland. He first flew his own flag on the Nonsuch and sailed to the Baltic on her. In later years his ships were smaller as befitted the nature of the tasks that fell to him.

    F E B R U A R Y - 2 0 2 0 PRESERVATION EDUCATION RESEARCH INSPIRE Dear Member: A huge thanks to everyone who attended our all day In-Depth Seminar on “Neanderthals & Early Humans”. I hope you enjoyed it as much as we did putting it on. Now the Board has to figure on how we top it next year! This month we are featuring Dr. Thomas Pluckhahn of University of South Florida. He is going to tell us about his recent excavations at the Safety Harbor Site in Tampa. Come join us on the 19th. Don’t forget your dues are now due. Previously membership dues were collected on your anniversary date, but this has proven very hard to administer. So with that in mind, the Board changed the procedure so that all member- ship dues will be due in January. Thank you for being a Time Sifters member. Darwin “Smitty” Smith, President [email protected] February 19, 6:00 PM - Selby Library, 1331 First St., Sarasota Remembering Tocobaga: Recent Archaeology at the Safety Harbor Site in Tampa Bay Dr. Tom Pluckhahn Professor, University of South Florida The Safety Harbor site is widely recognized as the probable location of the native town of Tocobaga, where Spanish Governor Pedro Menéndez de Avilés established a short-lived mission-fort in the 1560s. It later became the location for the plantation owned by one of the area’s most legendary settlers, “Count” Odet Philippe. Philippe is said to have been a childhood friend of Napoleon. He was the first European settler of Pinellas County, the first to cultivate citrus in Florida, and the first to introduce cigar rolling to Tampa Bay; generally omitted from such tall tales is the fact that he was slave owner of likely Afro-Caribbean heritage.

  • 1 WILLIAM BUSH – a LITERARY BIOGRAPHY Annual General
    WILLIAM BUSH – A LITERARY BIOGRAPHY Annual General Meeting, C.S. Forester Society, September 2017 Poor Bush. Hornblower’s devoted follower, who loses first his foot and later his life supporting his leader. The narrow-minded, unimaginative, but capable and loyal officer who passed for lieutenant on the strength of seamanship, despite his weakness in navigation. Last year, in Stockholm, I attempted to prove that Hornblower was an actual historical figure – not just a literary character based on a British captain or captains, but a real person. And I relied in part on the powerful proof that he was the subject of a scholarly biography by the respected C. Northcote Parkinson, which has actual footnotes; and that he was portrayed in a movie by Gregory Peck, who never lies. But today, I propose to do the opposite for William Bush. I propose to examine how Bush’s character developed through the Hornblower books; and what Forester thought of him; and, finally, to discover through the growth of his character the best order to read the books. And, as a hint, I’m going to discuss this by reviewing Bush’s career as it was written, not (so to speak) as it was lived. Early Character Development - BTQ, SOL, FC We first meet William Bush on the quarterdeck of the Lydia as it’s about to land on the coast of Nicaragua. The perfect landfall has nothing to do with Bush’s skill, or lack of skill – Hornblower had done the navigation himself, and he hadn’t even taken his first lieutenant into his confidence about the destination.

Only the wondrous ingenuity of Stephen, along with the unexpected appearance of one of Jack's oldest allies, leads them to escape, and to dubious safety in a penal colony at New South Wales. Emily Dickinson said there is no frigate like a book. The gleeful manner in which Patrick O'Brian fires these semantic broadsides across my bows brows! Most of the novels in the series tell the story exclusively from the point of view of Maturin or Aubrey, either through descriptions through their eyes, direct conversations, their internal thoughts, or their letters and diary entries. It's hard for me to explain why I like these books so much. This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers. First edition cover. Critic Reviews " Her smaller consort deserts the fight. HMS Surprise. Details if other :. Start with the first book in this 21 book series and you'll be hooked. I cannot recommend these books too highly.
