Description The Life of Thomas, Lord Cochrane, Tenth Earl of Dundonald, Vol 1
Lord Cochrane was a Napoleonic-era sea captain, whose adventures were the source material for many popular series of naval fiction. He started to write a biography but passed away after completing only two volumes. This work, co-authored by a naval historian and Cocharne's son, completes his "Autobiography of a Seaman". In this volume, Cochrane helps the Chilean navy defeat the Pacific navy of Spain, and then takes command of the navy of Brazil. It ends with him sailing to Greece, to aid them in rebellion against their Ottoman overlords
