Horatio Hornblower follows the career of a British naval officer during the Napoleonic Wars. Adapted from C. S. Forester’s novels, the stories center on Hornblower’s service at sea, where command brings both the demands of naval duty and the dangers of battle.
The radio drama brings maritime adventure to life through acted scenes, dialogue, and sound effects that evoke ships, storms, and combat. Hornblower’s decisions as an officer shape the action, while the changing circumstances of war test his judgment and resolve.
With its blend of historical adventure, naval action, and character-focused drama, the series offers an atmospheric voyage into the age of sail. This recording is titled “Prisoner of the French on the Pique.”
