With Cochrane the Dauntless
With Cochrane the Dauntless, published in 1897, is one of G. A. Henty's historical adventures for boys, built around the exploits of Lord Cochrane, the Royal Navy officer who, disgraced at home, commanded the Chilean and Brazilian navies in their wars of independence in the 1820s. A young English sailor joins him and shares in the storming of Valdivia and the cutting out of a Spanish frigate under the guns of Callao, is taken prisoner, and makes his way through the Andes and the Peruvian interior before rejoining the fleet for the campaign in Brazilian waters. Henty's preface ranks Cochrane second only to Nelson among British seamen. The full text is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, and the first chapter is free.
