An army officer drafted to lead a mixed group of marines and infantry. Mutual enmity between the groups and led by a disreputable, Irish and Catholic as well, leader caused them to be the expendables for action aship and on land. Lots of action, too much perhaps, welds the group into an effective fighting force and honour is redeemed. ( ) As an Irish-Catholic and a reputed coward, Lieutenant George Markham is a marine with something to prove. When his commanding officer is killed at sea, Markham seizes his chance-and finds himself at the helm of a creaky frigate crewed by malcontents. Now, Markham must gain the crew's respect, teach them to fight as a unit, and lead them into the heart of Revolutionary France on a mission they aren't expected to survive. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
