Mr. Midshipman Hornblower - C.S Forester Playlist
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xpPN25b5WI&list=PLVGcfDC15PsJ00U_NY2VKleMLA14KkYgb

Audiobook Chapters 1-10


The first of C.S Forester's naval yarns on the career of Horatio Hornblower; known first as the midshipman who was 'seasick at Spithead', he would eventually rise to become one of Napoleonic Britain's most decorated naval officers. This marks the first of his many years at sea, charting his journey from Midshipman to Lieutenant. Listen on, and enjoy!

The Ruby of Kishmoor tells the adventure of Jonathan Rugg.
A mysterious woman masked behind a veil of silver.

hid it from his shipmates and never told a soul where it was buried.
