Hornblower & the Crisis – C.S. Forester – First Edition 1967

Short Description

The unfinished novel of C.s. Forester along with two shorter stories .. Hornblower and the Widow McCool and The Last Encounter.

Published by Michael Joseph, London a first edition 1967. Octavo, 175 pages, a very good copy. Dust jacket art by Ivan Lapper.

C.S. Forester died before he could finish Hornblower and The Crisis … he had written 130 pages. An Editor’s note remarks “but from the notes that he left behind it is possible to see how the story would have ended” … Hornblower’s conscience about becoming a spy … Nelson’s wants …. And, maybe the Victory at Trafalgar.

The short stories … good bedtime reading.

A very good first of the very last of Hornblower.
