Autobiography Of A Seaman, Vol. 1

Autobiography of a Seaman, Vol. 1

by Lord Thomas Cochrane

This two-volume work is the autobiography of Lord Cochrane, a prominent British naval captain during the Napoleonic era. His daring exploits and strategic brilliance made him a legend in his time, shaping the development of naval fiction as a genre. Marryat sailed with Cochrane, and later writers, including Patrick O'Brian, drew inspiration from his life for their novels. The first volume chronicles Cochrane's early life, a period marked by his remarkable military achievements.
