- davidw 14y agoIf you liked that, what's fascinating is that the first book was more or less lifted from the life of an actual person: Cochrane: The Real Master and Commander: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00422LERA/?tag=dedasys-20 http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00422LERA/?tag=dedasys-20 I only read the first of the O'Brian books, but Cochrane's life was full of fascinating episodes, and I highly recommend that biography of him.
