these books were really good which one do you people think is the best? i like flying colors

I read this little note about them~The Hornblower books were the original series of sea stories set in the Napoleonic Wars, that last great conflict of the Age of Sail. Many young people have read them and dreamed of adventures on the briny deep.

sounds interesting

A group of Explorer Scouts in the UK got their Explorer Belt Awards for following Hornblowers escape route along the Loire in a rowboat... can't remember which book that was in though, but its a good one...

That was Flying Colours...

I liked Mr. Midshipmen Hornblower the best.

that was good beat to quarters was really good to.

Beat to Quarters was the US title...

Hmm,. I wasn't very big on Mr. Midshipman.
