	Book review: Lieutenant Hornblower by C. S. Forester (Fiction) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Hornblower subtly guides them to the actions and decisions that he wants from them without overstepping the top-down chain-of-command structure of the 1800s British navy, in which the captain enjoys the omnipotence granted by the king over crew and officers alike.
		Interestingly, Hornblower survives the paranoia of a mad captain, the indecisiveness and incompetence of an inept first lieutenant, harrowing sea and land battles with the Spanish, and delicate diplomatic maneuverings with the Spanish and with the highest levels of naval representatives, only to succumb to an unattractive but smitten woman.
		Lieutenant Hornblower is an exciting, fast-paced read that may convince you to investigate the rest of the series.

		Hornblower and the Hotspur break off to intercept it (thus removing himself and his ship from any possibility of the large prize money.) Hornblower is successful in delaying the larger frigate and forcing it to move off, leaving the rest of the English fleet undisturbed.

		Although the father-son-like relationship between Captain Pellew and Lieutenant Hornblower has been hinted at before, here it is depicted with little room for doubt.
		Pellew's discomfort at sending the young Lieutenant into such a dangerous situation is evident, as well as his fondness for the young man. It is noticeable by all around them, and he does lament how much he would miss Horatio should something happen to him.

		Midshipman Hornblower is a short book, aimed at children of an age I couldn't quite place (perhaps young teenagers?), and is told as a series of ten standalone stories of about 30 pages each.
		The story starts in 1793 and concerns the adventures of Horatio Hornblower (born July 4th, 1776--though I confess the point of the joke escapes me), commissioned as a midshipman in His Britannic Majesty's Royal Navy and sent to sea on blockade duty.
		The series continues for a total of 10 books, at which point Hornblower has become an admiral and is continuing his adventures in the West Indies (or at least so we can assume since the title of the last book is Admiral Hornblower in the West Indies).
