Podcast Description

In this podiobook: A romantic adventure from the days of wooden ships and iron men, CAPTAIN BLACKWELL'S PRIZE is a story of honor, duty, social class and the bond of sexual love.In 1802 Captain James Blackwell attacks and takes La Trinidad, a Spanish frigate aboard which Blackwell finds 35,000 gold dollars and the American woman Mercedes de Aragon. On putting into Gibraltar with his treasure and his new mistress Blackwell is informed by his irate evangelical admiral of the Treaty of Amiens, denying him prize money earned by the capture and setting Mercedes at liberty. But the self-possessed American has formed a strong attachment to lusty Captain Blackwell. When she journeys with the captain to the North African coast and is taken into the Dey of Oran's harem, Captain Blackwell must follow his own code of morality and honor to rescue the woman on whom his future happiness depends.CAPTAIN BLACKWELL'S PRIZE is historical fiction where sword fights and sea battles are depicted alongside the manners, ideas, and prejudices of men and women from the time of Nelson and Napoleon.

Customer Reviews

Master and commander as written by 'Jane Austin'. Charming and welll-read. Give it a try!

Really loved this mix of cultures and the accurate portrayal of the18th century naval life. Wish more episodes were available.

Engaging

Thoroughly engaging; I listened to nothing else from start to finish.
