About the book

Patrick O'Brian's Post Captain continues the story of Jack Aubrey and Stephen Maturin after the events of Master and Commander. Aubrey's financial and romantic difficulties unfold alongside renewed naval service during the Napoleonic Wars. O'Brian combines social comedy, maritime detail and the evolving friendship between his protagonists. The poems reflect on mortality, love, fate and the fleeting pleasures of life, particularly in Edward FitzGerald's famous English version.
