Forester and Patrick O'Brian. He survived fifty naval battles on the crack frigate Imperieuse under Lord Cochrane--the real-life model for Horatio Hornblower and Jack Aubrey. In addition to plenty of cannonfire, battle strategy, peril, and passion--liberally sprinkled with wit and fine turns of phrase--Marryat's real-life naval experiences lend his novels a truly remarkable authenticity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"McBooks Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40247216963699,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":18.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_33355f3d-f55a-41a2-a2cb-ca5103a0396b.jpg?v=1657378963","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/newton-forster-or-the-merchant-service-9780935526448","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
