Summary:
In 1817, Adam Bolitho, nephew of the famed Admiral Richard Bolitho,
is sent to Antigua where every harbor and estuary is filled with
ghostly ships, superfluous in the aftermath of war. Adam captains the
74-gun Athena, commissioned to hunt a quarry that flies no colors,
offers no quarter, and traffics in human life. Man of War brims with
authentic descriptions of ships under sail and life on the high seas.
In this story of a young man haunted by the ghosts of his past, Kent
shows once again that he is a master at the top of his game.
