BOOK DESCRIPTION FROM BACK COVER:
Master and Commander is the first of Patrick O'Brian's
now famous Aubrey-Maturin novels, regarded by many as the finest historical
novels ever written. It establishes the friendship between Captain jack
Aubrey RN and Stephen Maturin, who becomes his ship's surgeon and a scret
agent. It contains all the action and excitement which could possibly be
hoped for in a historical novel, but it also displays the qualities that
have made Patrick O'Brian a literary legend: his description of the detail
of life aboard a Nelsonic man of war, of weapons, food, conversation and
ambiance, of the landscape and of the sea. O'Brian's portrayal of each of
these is faultless and the sense of period throughout is acute. His power of
charactisaton, now brought to life in a major picture directed by Peter
Weir, and starring Russell Crowe and Paul Bettany, above all, is masterly.
