Description

Sir Richard Bolitho's latest challenge has begun. In "Colours Aloft", Vice-Admiral Bolitho commands the Argonaute, a French flagship taken in battle. With the Peace of Armiens in ruins, he must leave the safety of Falmouth and face the grim reality of war at close quarters. As Bolitho navigates this treacherous landscape, his personal vendetta against the French admiral who formerly sailed the Argonaute comes to a head. The battle ahead is one where no quarter will be asked or given, and Bolitho must use all his skill and experience to outmaneuver his enemy. With the overall intention of the French fleet hanging in the balance, Bolitho's men rely on him to make the right decisions. Will he emerge victorious, or will the Argonaute fall to its former captors?
