Lords of the Ocean – James L. Nelson (Paperback / Soft Cover)

James L. Nelsons Isaac Biddlecomb series has brought to life a never-before-seen side of Americas war for independence. With the expertise of a seasoned mariner, a historians vivid attention to detail, and a natural gift for sensational storytelling,”the American counterpart to Patrick OBrian”(David Brink) carries us along on his bold and stirring course through history.

After ferrying General George Washingtons troops across the East River and through the hell known as the Battle of Long Island, Captain Isaac Biddlecomb receives a monumental order. He is to transport to France the most powerful secret weapon in the countrys arsenal ?scientist, philosopher, and spirit of the enlightenment Dr. Benjamin Franklin. With a new team of men forging through the wintry North Atlantic and braving the cordon of the Royal Navy, Biddlecombs seemingly simple mission is just the first volley in a grand scheme: to topple Frances neutrality by gaining its vital support, and turn the colonial uprising into a full-scale world war for freedom.
