Nautical Mind :: Books :: Naval History :: 1789 - 1815 (Napoleonic Era) :: Frigate Surprise: The Ship Made Famous in the Novels of Patrick O'Brian

  The Frigate Surprise: The Ship Made Famous in the Novels of Patrick O'Brian
Frigate Surprise: The Ship Made Famous in the Novels of Patrick O'Brian 
Few fictional naval fiction vessels are more famous than HMS "Surprise" (featured in Patrick O'Brian's Aubrey-Maturin novels), but few people know that this 28-gun frigate had an eventful real life in the French and the British navies. This sumptuous volume describes both her actual and fictional careers, and includes construction and fit-out details, line drawings and historical artwork, plus shots of the ship and models used in the film "Master & Commander."
