High jinks on the high seas--

High jinks on the high seas--

I really liked this movie Master and Commander--http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0311113/

especially the opening scene (Russel Crowe)
and the book on which it is based.

But it is the only book by Patrick O'Brien which I read--I think I read it sitting in a chair in the bookstore called Olsens in Bethesda MD which went out of business around 2004.

A pity, got very nice CDs too at Olsens various locations for my radio programs.
