Without Patrick O'Brian, HMSSurprise would have been only a footnote in naval history, her main claim to fame only one story among thousands from that period. Nonetheless that story is an unusually interesting one, principally that of HMSHermione, aboard which one of the worst and bloodiest mutinies in the Royal Navy took place in 1797.
It was HMSSurprise under Captain Hammond that recaptured Hermione.
This is the cover for Dudley Pope's novel "The Black Ship".
