Cross of St George

by Alexander Kent Book 24 in the Richard Bolitho series.

First published 1996

4.4(1,565)

In 1813, American privateers are attacking convoys from Canada and the Caribbean, and Admiral Richard Bolitho returns to Halifax during the War of 1812. The campaign forces British and American sailors with a common heritage into close combat across cold and poorly supplied waters.

Bolitho tries to limit a conflict he believes neither country can win, but personal grief and revenge divide his senior officers. Adam Bolitho and Rear-Admiral Valentine Keen must confront their own losses while an enemy uses the war to pursue a private vendetta against the men sailing under the Cross of St George.
