Revolution at Sea - 3: The Continental Risque

More about the book

An enthralling naval adventure from bestselling author James Nelson, perfect for fans of Patrick O'Brian and C.S. Forester. With "first-rate action writing" (Publishers Weekly) and "authenticity" that carries total conviction (Patrick O'Brian), this fast-paced tale is filled with twists that will keep readers engaged. In 1776, as tensions boil over, the rebel government of Philadelphia authorizes the creation of the United States Navy, a bold move against British tyranny. Captain Isaac Biddlecomb embarks on a daring mission aboard the Charlemagne to raid British arms on New Providence Island in the Bahamas. However, his greatest challenge lies in his undisciplined crew, teetering on the brink of mutiny. Faced with betrayal and treachery, Biddlecomb must unite his men to confront a common enemy as the British Navy prepares to unleash its firepower against them. This gripping narrative is the third installment in the Revolution at Sea series, with Biddlecomb's journey continuing in Lords of the Ocean. Readers are encouraged to explore the earlier adventures, By Force of Arms and The Maddest Idea, to fully appreciate the unfolding saga.
