Lambdin's work is comparable to that of masters such as C.S. Forester in its technical detail, but it is distinguished by the interesting use of bawdy humor and the fact that the author is an American.
In the Bahamas to protect British merchants from pirates, Alan Lewrie becomes embroiled in a campaign to bring Calico Jack Finney to justice.

To the Cape of Good Hope in 1797, where French cruisers prowl, where a British circus and theatrical troupe joins the convoy, just teeming with tempting female acrobats, nubile young bareback riders, and alluring actresses like the seductive but deadly archer, Eudoxia Durschenko!
It will take all Lewries shrewd guile, wit, low cunning, and steely self-control to worm his way out of trouble, this time, and keep his breeches chastely buttoned up to avoid even more troubles . . . or will he?
