Cornwell, Bernard. Sharpe's Trafalgar. Gove Collection, *G PR6053 .O75 S564 2002.

"Here's something special: the novel about the Battle of Trafalgar that C.S. Forester never wrote for his naval hero, Horatio Hornblower. . . . . The ensuing naval action is as fine as anything Forester ever wrote, and Hornblower himself would have been proud of Sharpe's conduct."
