Blurb

Brown on Resolution is a 1929 nautical novel written by CS Forester. It is set during World War I. The hero of the novel, seaman Brown, is the sole able-bodied survivor of a sunken British warship, who is able single-handedly to discomfit its attacker, a German cruiser, long enough to ensure its destruction by its pursuers. The title is similar to the titles of legal textbooks, implying that the qualities shown by Brown are the epitome of "Resolution".
