Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The life of Thomas, Lord Cochrane, later 10th Earl of Dundonald, was more extraordinary than that of Nelson, more far fetched than that of Hornblower or Patrick O'Brien's Jack Aubrey. Born the son of an eccentric and indigent Scottish peer, he entered the Royal Navy in 1793. In a series of outstanding and heroic actions, often against seemingly overwhelming odds, he made his name fighting Napoleon's navy as one of the most dashing and daring frigate captains of his day, before embarking on a career as a mercenary admiral. An account of the life of a real Horatio Hornblower. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9780304356591
