Description
Mariner Geoffrey Frost finds himself in a war on land as he brings aid to General George Washington!
After a daring attack on the British collier fleet in the mouth of the Tyne River, Geoffrey Frost, merchant mariner turned reluctant privateer, returns to Portsmouth, New Hampshire in November 1776. There he learns that the war for independence has not gone well for the colonies. George Washington has been dislodged from New York, and the remnants of the Continental Army are being pursued across New Jersey by the British.
Knowing that the food and gunpowder he has captured from British supply ships are badly needed by the army, Frost resolves to carry the supplies to Washington. But the Royal Navy controls the coast from New York to the Chesapeake, so Frost must organize a complex and dangerous overland mission!
We early discoverers of Patrick O'Brian who anxiously awaited each new book in the series have felt bereft since his pen was stilled. J.E. Fender has come to the rescue...The Frost Saga shows a mastery of technical and historical detail...
-J.F. Lehman, former Secretary of the Navy and author of On Seas of Glory
Wagon trains, Indians, and Red-Coats...all are there as once again Fender deals up history with EXCITEMENT. - George W. Emery, Vice Admiral, U.S.N. (retired)
