	Lady Barbara Wellesley and Horatio Hornblower
		Hornblower is not a typical “avast-me-hearties,” girl-in-every-port, womanizing swashbuckler; he is not particularly handsome, nor has he any delusions about his looks, but he is unselfconsciously attractive.
		Lord Hornblower and the last book (in terms of the main character’s career), Admiral Hornblower in the West Indies, pose the most serious problems with Hornblower and Barbara, and are behind the distress which has prompted me to write to you in what must seem to you to be a most bizarre manner.
		It is almost embarrassing to read in Admiral Hornblower… when Barbara tearfully confesses the clever little subterfuge she plays on Hornblower which results in a man’s life spared, when one recalls his enormous betrayal of her in Lord Hornblower which resulted in a woman’s death.
