Patrick O'Brian - Aubrey / Maturin novels |
Patrick O'Brian is the author of the highly acclaimed Aubrey/Maturin novels, regarded by many as the greatest series of historical novels ever written. The paintings on the book covers are by Geoff Hunt, click on any of the covers to get a larger picture. See my Patrick O'Brian Links page for where to buy Geoff Hunt prints.


| To tell the
truth, sir, I believe I had rather sit in the shelter for
a while. The cabbage seems to have turned my inward parts
to water. Nonsense, said Stephen,
it is the most wholesome cabbage I have ever come
across in the whole of my career. I hope, Mr. Herapath,
that you are not going to join in the silly weak womanish
unphilosophical mewling and puling about the cabbage.' Patrick O'Brian
