Description
THE SEAGULL AND LE CORSAIR

1795 - Britain is at war with Revolutionary France. Giles Courtenay is given command of the sloop Seagull and sent to Antigua. There, they are on constant patrol against not only the French but privateers and pirates....and in particular the mysterious and vicious LeCorsair. Broadside battles and fierce hand to hand fighting abound as Courtenay and his men gradually close in on their quarry and they are forced to fight against the odds to unmask him.br>
