Donland - Raid on Port Royal - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Three sloops does not a squadron make...nor a commodore. Sailing from English Harbor, Donland is in command of the sloops Hornet, Stinger, and Jacket. His destination is Port Royal in Carolina to deliver munitions and soldiers. Sumerford has his secrets, Major Ellington of the army has his bluster, and Donland has a captain afraid of his first lieutenant. The mix is explosive, and Donland is challenged to stay in command. In freezing weather, the munitions and soldiers are landed. A fort has to be subdued, and Major Ellington is determined to have his glorious battle. The stage is set for one of the strangest battles of the Revolution. History records the Colonials as the victors, but Donland would argue the point.
