Combining three novellas that cover the early years of Richard Bolitho's service in the Royal Navy-including the latest Bolitho novella Band of Brothers-this omnibus is the new first book in the Richard Bolitho series, taking the place of McBooks's Midshipman Bolitho. All three novellas are packed with trademark Kent descriptions of ships under sail, eighteenth-century sea battles, and the burdens of command in a crowded wooden world bent on warfare.
