Steve Calhoun is 92% done

One of the things I enjoy about this series so far is that O’Brien loves to meander through various plots and shenanigans and generally chase whatever stray bit of history or nature or 18th century lore he can find. These are anything but tight little dramas that would neatly fit in the world of television and movies.

And then the last chapter is always a tension filled, cinematic masterpiece. Huzzah.

It’s simply amazing what people accomplished in the age of sail. This is an excellent story, and the Movie with Russell Crowe of the same name is based largely on this particular book in the series, but some others also. In the Royal Navy you must always choose the lesser of two weevils.
