- March 1814. An ultimately decisive episode in the Bolitho canon, Sword of Honour sees Sir Richard return from a wearing campaign in North American waters to take up a command in Malta. Meanwhile, his nephew Adam remains behind as captain of a frigate on the American coast. As England's long war with Napoleon reaches its end, will Richard Bolitho's longing for peace -- both public and personal -- be fulfilled?
