Captain Horatio Hornblower

In 1807, Captain Horatio Hornblower sails to the Pacific on a perilous mission in England's war with Spain. But when he arrives on the west coast of Nicaragua, he learns that England and Spain are now allies fighting the French. He rescues a beautiful young Englishwoman and falls in love as he nurses her back to health - only to learn she is already betrothed. When sailing back to England, Hornblower is waylaid and taken prisoner by a much larger French force.
