Read Brown on Resolution Storyline:

A man alone—against the might of a German cruiser
The autumn of 1914. In Europe, the warring nations are already locked in a bloody stalemate. But thousands of miles away, on the remote Pacific island of Resolution, a different—and very personal—battle is about to begin.
High among the island’s volcanic crags, a young English sailor gazes down on the German raider Ziethen, the battlecruiser whose guns had sunk his ship and sent his crewmates to their deaths. Armed only with a stolen rifle and stubborn, unquestioning courage, Leading Seaman Albert Brown is determined to stop Ziethen from making herself seaworthy and leaving Resolution before the searching British navy arrives. Even if it costs his twenty-year-old life . . .
Brown on Resolution is an epic tale of individual courage in war, one of the incomparable C. S. Forester’s most stirring story-telling achievements.
