Admiralty Orders: Under Admiralty Orders - The Oliver Quintrell Series - Book 3

For officers in His Majestyâ€™s Navy during the Napoleonic War, life was not a continuous round of sea battles and subsequent prizes. Spending many months on blockade duty was far from the exciting and profitable life they had expected when entering the Service.
Book 3 in the Oliver Quintrell Series, sees Captain Quintrell facing life-threatening events over which he has no control. Ordered to sail to Gibraltar in the late summer of 1804, his ship soon becomes hemmed in, not by Spanish gunboats or French ships of the line, but by the Quarantine Regulations which close the port around him. Unable to halt the loss of life from a raging epidemic, he strives to do his part to help save the Colony when it is at its most vulnerable.
This nautical fiction adventure is based on actual events which took place in and around Gibraltar between August and December, 1804, including a major sea battle. It shows how ignorance and prejudice can exist in a ship, and presents a startling portrait of life at Gibraltar â€“ a British settlement ruled by a military garrison where naval power was only an incidental force.
