Hello Guest! There's a lot to look over, so sit back with a cup of coffee, relax and browse around. We have a great group of ship and boat modelers here, both newbies and old salts, from all over the world. Our goal here is to help each other, without criticism or rebuke. Both newbies and old salts alike can learn from each other. No one has all the answers. Our most basic rule is simple, respect for your fellow members and their opinions. And don't take yourself too seriously! wirewolf (John, AKA - Cap), Forum Administrator

Description » Horatio Hornblower is the best-known character in nautical fiction. C.S. Forester's protagonist is not built of the same cardboard as many naval heroes of earlier adventure novels. He is a fully rounded person with the same fears, doubts, passions, and yearnings as any man. Hornblower's briny adventures and his breathtaking battles against Bonaparte's navy are the memorable sagas to which the works of Kent, Pope, and O'Brian are inevitably compared.

Description » Richard Woodman joins other authors(Forester, Kent, V.A. Stuart, and Dudley Pope) in a excellent mix of history and Fiction. The story lines with a fictional main charector is woven with historical fact in a way that the reader learns about this very interesting time in British Naval History. As a historian I found him to be accurate. I recommend him to all of you who grew up reading C.S. Forrester.
