The Aubrey/Maturin series by Patrick O'Brian is one of the greatest series of novels I've ever read. The movie Master & Commander with Paul Bettany and Russel Crowe was an amalgamation of 2 or 3 of the books in that series. It's also the title of the first book in the series.
I also recently finished The Wager and thought it was excellent. Can you recommend any other nautical novels I should check out?
Are you wanting fiction or nonfiction??
I would be fine with either!
20,000 Leagues Under The Sea is a classic if you haven't read it already

Thanks, I will add these to the list. That was a good movie.
