Description:Mr. Midshipman Easy is set in Napoleonic times when Britain ruled the waves, and both Spain and France, at different times, challenged that supremacy. The series starts when young Jack Easy , the son of an English Gentleman of considerable landed property, decides to turn his back on his comfortable life at home, and instead joins the Royal Navy as a Midshipman in search of "the equality of man" . This is a new philosophy, inspired by the French Revolution, which his father had been propagating for many years in the heart of the English countryside - but with limited success. Jack Easy, a gentleman always, discovers fairly swiftly that the Service has its own rules and customs - and the equality of man is definitely not amongst them. "Mr. Midshipman Easy" will appeal particularly to young gentlemen with a taste for adventure and an interest in the Navy. This book introduces our hero to the reader when he is still a boy and recounts his first adventures in the Service. It is a swashbuckling adventure full of character and life - with a humorous undertone running throughout. The young Jack Easy quickly grows up in the harsh setting of the Midshipman's berth - but never loses the manners and decorum of a Gentleman. Jack is a hard fighter when a fight is called for - and a young officer learning the ropes.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
