I liked this story, set in the Mediterranean when British ships weren't there! Lots of info on bomb ketches. Never realized they existed ( ) Another book where Ramage uses trickery rather than brute force to attain his goals. He is back in the Mediterranean on a mission to create as much chaos as possible. He stumbles upon 2 bomb ketches and discovers a secret assembly of French naval vessels taking place and after capturing these vessels and learning how to use them, he decides to do what he can to disrupt this secret assembly. What I like about Pope's Ramage series, is how he describes in detail (but not boring detail) how his plans work. I actually think if I went back in time and were fit enough I could live life as a seaman .... at least on a Ramage frigate. :) Ramage captures two bomb ketches and finds a way to put them to good use. Excellent series, sometimes based upon actual events. Always a good story with interesting characters, puzzling quandaries and sometimes quirky solutions. Age of sail tyros should read early in their literary questing for his knowledge and insights into fighting, sailing and British Navy life during these quite fascinating times. Many set in the Caribbean where Pope lived for most of his writing career enabling him to provide very helpful maps, not often found in fiction, for his scenarios. Valse kleuren... Alleen in de door fransen vergeven Middenlandse Zee, duizend mijlen verwijderd van het dichtsbijzijnde engelse schip treft Nicholas Ramage bij toeval de franse invasievloot. Met slechts de Calypso en twee buitgemaakte, lompe bombardeerschuiten onder zijn bevel moet hij ze tegen houden...en alleen de meest onberaden list zal uitkomst bieden aucune critique | ajouter une critique
