Query: Nelson isn't Patrick O'Brian, he may be superior in his way.

This is the third of a triology which will now have a sequel. Having read all of O'Brian's books, I found Nelson a pleasant change of pace. The story covers detail of the first exploits of the American Navy which moves at a pace not found in O'Brian's books. You won't find information on the variety of seagulls observed during the voyage, but the void is filled with more interesting insights of historical note. I recommend this series as an outstanding opportunity to enjoy a phase of American history not previously explored in my readings.
