Synopsis "Capitán de Navío (Ii) (in Spanish)"

Segunda de la más apasionante serie de novelas históricas de tema naval jamás publicada, Capitán de navío nos trae nuevas aventuras del capitán Jack Aubrey y su amigo el doctor Stephen Maturin. El almirantazgo ha decretado que el navío español que capturó Aubrey debe ser devuelto a su propietario. A la espera de que le sea asignado un nuevo barco, Jack pasa una temporada en la campiña inglesa mientras se consolida el tempestuoso romance con la que será la mujer de su vida... hasta que debe huir del país para evitar ser encarcelado por deudas. En Francia, él y Maturin se encontrarán en medio de la guerra que acaba de declarar Napoleón, y deberán ingeniárselas para salir con vida.Atravesando España lograrán llegar a Gibraltar y Aubrey conseguirá el mando de un nuevo tipo de navío que debería asegurar a Inglaterra su superioridad naval. Los dos amigos se verán envueltos en muchas emocionantes aventuras y Maturin se revelará como un extraordinario espía capaz de desbaratar los planes de Bonaparte.'

Richard Patrick Russ, known as Patrick O'Brian, was a British writer and translator born in Buckinghamshire (not in Ireland, as he claimed) on December 12, 1914, and who died on January 2, 2000 in Dublin, Ireland

Son of a doctor of German origin and an Englishwoman of Irish descent, he was the eighth of a family of nine children. He published his first novel in 1930, when he was a teenager, but did not return to write this genre —although he did publish several stories, biographies, and children's books— until about forty years later, an American publisher suggested he write a work in the line of the late Cecil Scott Forrester, maintaining the genre of the "naval epic" that had made him famous

Following the editor's advice, O'Brian wrote the famous characters Jack Aubrey and Stephen Maturin, who thrived in the environment of the British Navy during the Napoleonic Wars. Master and Commander, the first title in the series they starred in, led to the successful film adaptation Master and Commander, which featured Russell Crowe

O'Brian was an excellent translator of French, as evidenced by his translations of Papillon by Henri Charrière and several works by Simone de Beauvoir. A writer jealous of his private life, little was known about his life until the publication of his biography by his stepson, Nikolai Tolstoy.
