In Gallant Company

by Alexander Kent Book 5 in the Richard Bolitho series.

First published 1977

4.5(2,349)

In 1777, the American rebellion has become a full-scale war, and Lieutenant Richard Bolitho serves aboard the eighty-gun Trojan. The ship is ordered to intercept supplies bound for George Washington’s forces and to counter French and American privateers operating between New York and the Caribbean.

Bolitho is still a junior officer, but shortages, casualties and rapidly changing orders repeatedly leave him carrying responsibilities beyond his rank. Under a severe captain and amid mounting danger, he must learn when obedience is enough and when the survival of his companions requires independent command.
