About This Book

Un jeune novice embarque sur un brick corsaire et découvre la discipline rigoureuse, les manœuvres nocturnes et l'autorité taciturne d'un commandant mystérieux. Le récit mêle descriptions techniques de la vie de bord, veillées, conseils d'officiers et intrigues maritimes: le chef expose un plan d'opération et réunit un conseil pour décider d'une entreprise menée en mer. Les scènes alternent observations minutieuses du navire et tensions intérieures du novice, tandis que se déploient manœuvres, décisions stratégiques et le climat de secret qui entoure l'équipage.
