Within this volume, author Bryan Perrett shows the many parallels between the C.S. Forester's fictional Horatio Hornblower and Admiral Sir James Gordon, GCB. More than a fine biography, this is an absorbing historical detective story by a master of original research. A very lightweight softback copy with covers in excellent condition - only fault is a couple of very minor, almost imperceptible dents to edges of front cover. Internal condition is pristine and unmarked.
