Kings and Emperors

by Dewey Lambdin Book 21 in the Alan Lewrie Naval Adventures series.

First published 2015

2.5(5)

Alan Lewrie begins 1808 confined to Gibraltar and commanding harbour gunboats while HMS Sapphire lies idle. Napoleon’s invasion of Portugal and intervention in Spain transform the strategic situation, freeing Lewrie to carry arms, agents and troops along the Iberian coast.

As Spanish resistance topples old arrangements and opens the Peninsular War, Lewrie scouts Ceuta, supports patriot forces and escorts the first British expeditionary units. Going ashore, he witnesses Arthur Wellesley’s early campaign and must adapt naval power to a war driven by uprising, occupation and uncertain allies.
