If you've not read any of his historical naval fiction, give yourself a
treat and do so. He also wrote the "Richard Bolitho" series under the name
Alexander Kent. That was a super series. I'm currently reading his 'Royal
Marines Saga', a series of five. Good books.

For some reason, I just didnt like the Bolitho series although I liked
Reemans WW2 stories. I've read many of the series about fighting
sailing ships but the Bolitho ones just leave me cold. The detail in
the Obrien books was great, I liked the Woodman series about
Drinkwater. My fav is still Hornblower.
