Description
Alexander Kent's gripping maritime tale follows Sir Richard Bolitho as he navigates the treacherous waters of 1813. With convoys from Canada and the Caribbean falling victim to American privateers, Bolitho returns to Halifax, driven by a desire for peace that seems increasingly elusive. As tensions escalate between Britain and the United States, Bolitho must confront his own demons and take on new responsibilities as Rear-Admiral Valentine Keen. Meanwhile, Adam's personal tragedy and the struggle for identity in Canada's young nation add depth to this swashbuckling narrative. A story of war, loss, and revenge, Cross of St George is a riveting tale that explores the complexities of conflict and the human cost of victory.
