THE QUARTERDECK LADDER.
William Kimber London 1982 first edition. 173 pp 8vo 8 3/4" H hard cover in dust jacket. ISBN 0718300297 "Jeremiah Coghlan's meteoric rise from ship's boy to Post Captain in the Royal Navy of Nelson's time is matter of historical fact. So is the succession of sea-fights by which he a chieved his ambition. But Navy records naturally have nothing to say about the private life of this obscure and forgotten hero and here the author has interwoven fiction with fact to produce a stirring tale in which troubled romance ashore c o n t r a s ts with desperate action afloat. Commander Showell Styles served in Mediterranean waters during most of World War 2 and sailing small craft is one of his hobbies - circumstances which enable him to reconstruct with authenticity the s e a- fi gh ts a nd s hip-handling of the Napoleonic Wars. In his books he invariably writes about men who actually lived and naval engagements that actually took place." Tiny soiling mark on title page faint cigarette odor. Dust jacket has min or ed ge wri nkl ing . Ver y Good/Very Good. William Kimber, London, 1982, first edition. hardcover

The Sea Lord
New York: Ballantine Books Inc. 1956. 192 Pages. Covers show some wear to edges and corners and inside covers have a hint of age-tanning. A red-headed sea devil Captain Lord Cochrane never refused a fight-whether he was facing a Spanish frigate of 32 guns or the incompetent Admirals of his own navy in London. Now he held the most envied commission of the war -- command of the fireships in the attack on the French fleet. If his daring plan proved victorious Captain Cochrane would be a hero equal to Nelson. But his own superiors in the Admiralty hoped he would fail. Styles has been compared with C. S. Forester. The author is one of Britain's foremost historical novelists. A Lieutenant Commander in the Reserve of the Royal Navy he combines a thorough knowledge of the sea with a sharp sense of narrative. Further his books are historically authentic. All the characters actually existed and all the major events actually occurred. Published by Vanguard in hardcover as The Frigate Captain. Contents in Eight Chapters: The Personable Female The Captain of the Speedy Dea ex Machina The Power of Rhetoric Fort Trinidad The Fireships Shoal and Harbour and The Reward.
