To commemorate the 40th anniversary of their beginning with Master and Commander these evocative stories are being re-issued in paperback with smart new livery. This is the seventeenth book in the series. Jack Aubrey's long service is at last rewarded: he is promoted to the rank of Commodore and given a squadron of ships to command. His mission is twofold - to make a large dent in the slave trade off the coast of Africa and on his return to intercept a French fleet set for Bantry Bay with a cargo of weapons for the disaffected among the Irish. Invention and surprise follow at every turn in this tale of nineteenth-century seamanship as rich as compelling as masterly as any of its predecessors.

The Road to Samarcand
London: Rupert Hart-Davis 1955. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine-/Fine-. First Impression no further printings noted. Small 8vo: 2551pp. Publisher's coarsely woven tangerine cloth spine stamped in silver; pictorial dust jacket by Ralph Thompson. About Fine square tight and bright with one bumped corner and small light stain to back board in about Fine price-clipped jacket with very brief edge wear. Publication date given as 1954 but released February 1955. One of only 5000 copies printed. many fewer of which apparently were bound. King p. 77. Cunningham A4a. Set in Asia during the 1930s Samarcand precedes by 15 years the first installment of O'Brian's masterpiece the Aubrey-Maturin series but bears an important relationship to its development. Although the story takes place largely on land as do the Aubrey-Maturin novels Samarcand begins with an adventure at sea with a ship caught in a typhoon. As with the many storms at sea in the Aubrey-Maturin series O'Brian's creation of this storm sequence "displays a mastery comparable with that of Joseph Conrad." Writing under his birth name P. R. Russ O'Brian had early published three stories in the Oxford Annual for Boys involving Samarcand's Captain Sullivan and his companion Ross. The last of these "No Pirates Nowadays" appearing in 1940 is a prequel to Samarcand according to King which opens with the same characters aboard the same ship in the same general locale in place at the close of the short story.

Great Britain - History Naval - 19th century - Fiction. South China Sea Region - Fiction. Fiction in English - 1945 - Texts. Series: O'Brian Patrick 1914-2000. Aubrey/Maturin novels. Summary: Patrick O'Brian's Aubrey-Maturin tales are widely acknowledged to be the greatest series of historical novels ever written. To commemorate the 40th anniversary of their beginning with Master and Commander these evocative stories are being re-issued in paperback with smart new livery. This is the thirteenth book in the series. For all Jack Aubrey's life he has triumphed often sensationally over the dangers of the sea and the violence of the enemy. But his rashness his guilelessness his indiscretion have time and time again enabled his rivals to prevent him reaping his just rewards. The nadir was reached in The Reverse of the Medal when the victim of a skilful frame-up he was convicted of fraud and struck off the Navy list just as he was coming within sight of flag rank. The subsequent exposure of the conspiracy coupled with his brilliant success in command of a privateer had brought him to a position where Their Lordships were more or less bound to reinstate him. This as the present book opens they have done and he and his old friend Dr Maturin are sailing on a secret mission with a hand-picked crew most of them shipmates from the adventures and lucrative voyages of earlier years.

The Thirteen Gun Salute
London: Collins 1989. First Edition. Hardcover. As New/As New. First Impression no additional printings noted in the first issue dust jacket with "Thirteen Gun" unhyphenated. Tall 8vo: 3191pp. Publisher's French blue cloth spine stamped in gilt still brilliant; pictorial jacket illustrated by Geoff Hunt and priced £11.95. Very Fine and unread. Cunningham A22a. Thirteenth installment in the Aubrey-Maturin series of historical novels-20 completed and one left unfinished-set during the Napoleonic Wars and featuring naval commander Jack Aubrey and ship's surgeon and secret agent Stephen Maturin. This episode opens with Aubrey and Maturin preparing for a diplomatic mission to the Sultan of Pulo Prabang a fictitious piratical Malay state in the South China Sea to convey the envoy who will attempt to persuade the Sultan to become an English rather than French ally. Much of the action centers on the indiscretions of two English traitors-Wray and Ledward-who are assisting the French and for which they are ultimately assassinated. The title refers to the honor a thirteen-gun salute due the English envoy as a representative of the King.
