Description
Captain Sir Thomas Kydd is promoted to command the HMS Thunderer, a 74-gun ship of the line. However, he soon discovers that his new vessel is old and in need of significant improvement. With a hostile crew and poor gunnery capabilities, Kydd must win over his men before he can bring the ship up to fighting standard. Kydd's challenges are compounded by being sent to reinforce the Baltic squadron as Napoleon's army invades Russia. News reaches him of French victory at the Battle of Borodino, and he must lead a vital convoy through battle and tempest to aid Britain's last ally.
