Más información sobre el libro

The book explores the lives of the young boys who manned the ships of the Georgian navy, focusing on those from impoverished backgrounds rather than the privileged future officers. It delves into their recruitment, unique subculture, and the hardships they faced, portraying the Navy as a refuge for orphans and delinquents seeking adventure. By highlighting their experiences during the Seven Years War, the author pays tribute to these overlooked sailors whose contributions were vital to the Royal Navy's success.
