I think this is a pretty good starter book for anyone looking into naval history. It has all the elements of a good story: dynamic characters, plot & crazy drama & suspense. Author does a good job of compiling several narratives & creating a strong sense of flow in his story telling. My only complaint is the author’s use of pronouns when he’s discussing multiple people at once. A few times I caught myself questioning “who???” But ya I love me a British naval historical account🙂‍↕️
