1792. Keen to escape a stifling home life and explore the world, Sim Roberts joins the Royal Navy. Jolly Jack Tar doesn't know what to make of a nice 14-year-old of the middling classes. And the feeling is mutual. Then the war begins
Admiral Lord Nelson is revered by his men. As the only seaman to serve in Nelson's ship for every one of his four great Fleet Actions, Sim knows exactly why.
This adventure follows Sim's progress from dazed and confused Landsman to respected Bosun's Mate across 14 epic years of the war against France, culminating at Trafalgar.
