Title: Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World
Product review: If you see the movie by the same title as the book you will be better off. The movie has more action than the book. Usually the norm is the book is better than movie in this instance it is not the case. In the movie the setting is during the Napolionic era and chasing a French frigate. In the book the setting is during the War of 1812 and chasing the American Frigate Norfolk. The book explains the lives of seamen at sea during that era. No great naval encounters like in the movie. I could not wait to finish this book and place it on the bookshelf under never to be touched again. To think that I need to read the first book of this series Master and Commander. That will take a while before I read that book.
