Bolitho: Three Classic Tales Of the Sea In One Volume- Inc: With All Despatch, Honour this Day, The Only Victor (1993) By Alexander Kent
Plymouth, July 1801: Richard Bolitho's small squadron, still repairing the scars of battle earned in heavy action at Copenhagen, has been months away from the sea. After eight years of war with France, Britain must make a gesture that will show strength and determination—and one which will dramatically weaken the French cause. Rear-Admiral Bolitho must follow his flag's tradition of victory, even though—for the first time in his life—he is torn between the demands of public duty and personal need.
Alexander Kent is the author of twenty eight acclaimed books featuring Richard Bolitho. Under his own name, Douglas Reeman (1924-2017), and in the course of a career spanning forty five years, he has written over thirty novels and two non fiction books. His pseudonym 'Alexander Kent' was the name of a friend and naval officer who died during the Second World War.
