About the Book

YOU CAN'T ESCAPE.YOU'RE TRAPPED.Thrust into the war as a young woman, Corrie Harriman is determined to find love and solace in the midst of chaos and destruction. She must summon up the courage she needs to beach her shattered frigate on a wild and lonely shore hissing with volcanic gases and alive with strange animals. She can feel the evil Red Lady closing in on her. Can Corrie find what she needs deep inside herself to turn the tables on her foe? She is fast running out of time. There are spies within her crew waiting to betray her and to undermine the very trust she holds most dear. It is time to shout 'BOARD THE ENEMY!' Dare she give the order?Anthony Barton's Corrie Harriman tales are a groundbreaking series of historical nail-biters depicting what it was truly like for women and men to serve in Nelson's navy. All sixteen books starring Corrie depict her meteoric rise through the ranks, while at the same time portraying her constant fear of being exposed and thrown out of the navy.CORRIE 1: PRESS GANG! is the first of Barton's stories about Corrie. Her life about the frigate Swift is described. Corrie meets the mysterious White Lady who will mean so much to her in future episodes. Corrie's life is threatened by the evil Master-at-Arms, Mr. Sly. Corrie befriends the escaped slave Billy Brown, the Captain of the Maintop, and wonders if Billy, too, is a woman in disguise. And all the while, she feels the ambience of a warship in the time of Nelson: scrubbing the deck, keeping watches, learning to speak the language and to find her way from the cat lashings to the bilge hole. Barton is careful about the language of the time, and faultless in his description of naval customs and traditions. As you read the tale, you have to wonder why the historical fact that women served in large numbers under Nelson has been hidden from the public for so long. Here at last is a true-to-life account that helps to set the record straight.
