Honour This Day (Richard Bolitho Novels # 17), Vol. 17 FROM THE PUBLISHER
In September 1804, as England stands alone against France and the fleets of Spain, Vice-Admiral Richard Bolitho hoists his flag above the veteran Hyperion and sets sail with a new squadron for the Caribbean. His orders are to plan and execute a daring dawn raid on the Spanish Main. Beneath the hostile mortars of La Guaira lies the ultimate prize: Her Catholic Majesty�s largest treasure ship, laden with gold and silver bound for Spain. Bolitho sails Hyperion east once more—to death or glory . . .
