About this book

Master and Commander (Aubrey/Maturin Novels, 1) (Book 1) by O'Brian, Patrick. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780393037012.

The beginning to the sweeping Aubrey/Maturin series. "The best sea story I have ever read."―Sir Francis Chichester This, the first in the splendid series of Jack Aubrey novels, establishes the friendship between Captain Aubrey, R.N., and Stephen Maturin, ships surgeon and intelligence agent, against a thrilling backdrop of the Napoleonic wars. Details of a life aboard a man-of-war are faultlessly rendered: the conversational idiom of the officers in the ward room and the men on the lower deck, the food, the floggings, the mysteries of the wind and the rigging, and the roar of broadsides as the great ships close in battle.
