Wine Dark Sea

"I suspect that more than a few newcomers will emerge from THE WINE-DARK SEA aficionados, determined to master O'Brian's entire chronicle. Eventually, they will become as blithely informed on the seamanship and lingo of a square-rigged ship as the author--and as au courant with the zigs and zags of Captain Aubrey's naval career and Dr. Maturin's ploys on behalf of British intelligence. It will be a long voyage--but it is hard to imagine better shipmates."Wine Dark Sea , was published 2007 under ISBN 9780786149339 and ISBN 0786149337.
