David Scrimshaw reviewed The privateersman by Frederick Marryat (Classics of nautical fiction series)
Review of 'The privateersman' on 'Storygraph'
2 stars
I slogged through this because it was written by Captain Marryat who was a British Naval captain during the Napoleonic wars. It was interesting to see his take on morality and hierarchy and what made for an entertaining story. But we really have come a long way since his time.
