The historical novel "Captain Nelson. Under the King's Flag" is the first volume of Mac P. Lorne's dilogy about the life of Lord Nelson, England's greatest naval hero. He is still regarded today as the most glorious officer of the Royal Navy: in 1784, the young Captain Horatio Nelson was commissioned to monitor the ban on trade between the English colonies in the West Indies and the renegade USA. However, the forbidden business is highly lucrative, which is why the British governor of Antigua turns a blind eye. Soon the charismatic and conscientious Nelson has made numerous enemies in the Caribbean. They would not be the last: When a new war broke out with France in the wake of the French Revolution, Nelson was sent to the Mediterranean. In Naples, he is asked to ask England's allies for support and meets the love of his life: the beautiful Emma Hamilton. But she is already the wife of the British ambassador ... A historical seafaring novel with vivid descriptions and credibly drawn characters.
