I argued with my AP English teacher on how Odysseus was a really crappy seaman and Hornblower could take him anytime! What do ya'll think? Give me good ...
I don't know about that, deft. I think Odysseus did a pretty good job as a sailor, because sailing a small boat or raft single handed in the Mediterranean is...

Well, I don't know . . . HH seems to be at his best when he is the "man alone" with an independent command, as opposed to a subordinate in a large fleet. He ...
Good point. I think it was a wise move on C.S. Forrester's part that he didn't have Mr. Hornblower actually participate in Trafalgar, although it's a bit...

I agree with that, I think it was interesting and I am somewhat glad Forrester didn't put Horatio in Trafalgar. Putting him in too many historical events makes...
Hello all. I just joined and just (as in a few minutes ago) finished Beat to Quarters. Gosh I love these books, they're so incredible. Got the movies on tape ...
I agree with you that 'Beat to Quarters' (The Happy Return) is a great book and it spawned a great series. I just reread 'Lieutenant Hornblower' and am struck...
I think LT Hornblower is my favorite so far, but I just started in on Ship of the Line, and even into the first few pages I can tell it will be awesome. As far...
If anyone here is also a fan of Patrick Obrian's Aubrey/Maturin series, you'll be glad to know they are making a movie of the "Master and Commander"...

Hi guys, I was doing some cleanup on my Yahoogroups today and noticed that not a lot was happening on this particular list. Since there really isn't a ...
... I agree, Cavalrysword. The usual way of doing sequels, unfortunately, is to try and sever ties with any previous movie to avoid confusing viewers. So...
I understand the desire for movie veiwers to see the same characters they are familiar with, but I think the return of Pellew and Mathews and Stiles is really...
