  • "This, the first in the splendid series of Jack Aubrey novels, establishes the friendship between Captain Aubrey, R.N., and Stephen Maturin, ship's surgeon and intelligence agent, against a thrilling backdrop of the Napoleonic wars. Details of life aboard a man-of-war are faultlessly rendered: the conversational idiom of the officers in the ward room and the men on the lower deck, the food, the floggings, the mysteries of the wind and the rigging, and the roar of broadsides as the great ships close in battle."
  • "Als een Engelse luitenant-ter-zee in 1800 het bevel krijgt over het schip de "Sophie", vraagt hij een bevriende arts scheepsdokter te worden."
  • "The first volume of the Aubrey/Maturin novels introduces Captain Jack Aubrey and Stephen Maturin, ship's surgeon and intelligence agent, in the age of the Napoleonic wars."

  • ""Premier volet d'une saga historique, maritime et guerrière, mettant en scène le capitaine Jack Aubrey, de la Royal Navy, et Stephen Maturin, son médecin de bord, agent de renseignements dans la guerre secrète que l'Angleterre livre à la France de Napoléon."
  • "Master and commander is the first of Patrick O'Brian's now famous Aubrey-Maturin novels and establishes the friendship between Captain Jack Aubrey RN and Stephen Maturin, who becomes his secretive ship's surgeon and an intelligence agent. Master and commander contains all the action and excitement of a great historical novel. But it also displays the qualities which have put O'Brian far ahead of any of his competitors, including his depiction of the detail of life aboard a Nelsonic man-of-war, of weapons, food, conversation and ambience, of the landscape and of the sea. O' Brian's portrayal of each of these is faultless and the sense of period throughout is acute."@en

  • "Introduces Captain Jack Aubrey and Stephen Maturin, ship's surgeon and intelligence agent, in the age of the Napoleonic wars."
  • "Lieutenant Jack Aubrey, commander of the Sophie, and his ship's surgeon, Stephen Maturin, initiate the popular series as they set sail, trading the unpleasantries of shore life for the rigors of the sea."
  • "Set sail for the read of your life! Patrick O'Brian's Aubrey-Maturin tales are widely acknowledged to be the greatest series of historical novels ever written. Now these evocative stories are being re-issued in paperback by Harper Perennial with stunning new jackets."@en
