A review by elizabethk_reads
Admiral Hornblower in the West Indies by C.S. Forester

5.0

Wow... first off I loved the format of the vignettes of events over the 3 year appointment. I was wondering what Hornblower's amazing intellect could be used for in peacetime, and I was surprised at how much was going on despite the peace. It was good to see him as the hero and strategist up until the end. The closure between him and Barbara was more touching than I could have imagined. Overall, it left me wanting more. Thankfully, the second half of Hornblower During the Crisis awaits...
