All the other novels in the series take place during the 1793 1815 wars with revolutionary and Napoleonic France . This one takes place when Britain is at peace, May 1821 October 1823. Hornblower has been promoted Rear Admiral and has been named in command of the West Indies station, i.e. the Caribbean , with a squadron consisting of three frigate s and fourteen brigs and schooners. While it is the last Hornblower novel chronologically, at least one short story is set after the events in this novel. In the Royal Navy of the early nineteenth century, promotion from Post Captain Captain to Admiral was based solely on seniority. Hornblower was made a Captain in 1805. Compared with the distinguished officer Edward Berry , who was promoted to Post Captain Captain in 1797, and was not promoted to Rear Admiral until 1821, seniority should not have brought promotion to Rear Admiral to Hornblower until the mid 1830s or later. Like some other Hornblower novels, Forester wrote it in the form of several novellas that can be read independently.

It provided for the West Indies to be divided up into three or more Diocese bishopric s, rather than the two previously provided for. This allowed the establishment of the Diocese of Antigua in 1842, in addition to the two dioceses created in 1824, the Diocese of Jamaica and the Diocese of Barbados . The Act also empowered the bishops to appoint archdeacons, and for the Treasury to pay 6,300 to support the establishment. The Act was repealed by the Statute Law Repeals Act 1971 , having since become obsolete. References Reflist Refbegin The companion to the British almanac, for the year 1843 , p.  129. London, 1843.
