Welcome aboard the H.M.S. Indefatigable! |
|
|
|
My name is Captain Sir Edward Pellew. (Don't let the name fool you. I'm only in character. I'm really a woman.) You are on His Brittanic Majesty's frigate, Indefatigable. (Indefatigable was Midshipman Hornblower's ship after he transfered off H.M.S. Justinian and before he got his commission as lieutenant.) On my ship (web page) I will give you a list of the books in the Hornblower series, a list of the Hornblower movies made, why I think you should read the series, and a bibliography. So let's set sail and get on our way! |

Captain Horatio Hornblower was made in 1965 starring Gregory Peck. It is based on the books Beat to Quarters, Ship of the Line, and Flying Colours. The last four movies listed were made in 1998 starring Ioan Gruffud (pronounced "Yowan Griffith"). They were shown as a set on the cable channel A&E. These four movies are based on the book Mr. Midshipman Hornblower. |
