Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

This story begins with a young boy who, typical of Henty, displays all the virtues and none of the vices, and who advances in rank at an unbelievable pace with all humility. It is an enjoyable way to learn about life in the British navy, ships, fighting, and pirates. The only time it goes into great historical detail is towards the end of the book, in contrast to many other Henty books that weave a little bit of a personal story between historical narrations. I was glad I read it, and would recommend it to others. All the books by this author I read along with the historical period I am teaching my kids in our homeschool, finding them to be an enjoyable way to delve deeper into the topic. Most of them take me 8 hours to read, I think.Product details

Excellent writing, not his best story.
It was a very good book I very much enjoyed it and I would gladly introduce it to my friends
Just like all of Henry's books, it was a great read. For anyone but especially for young boys. Great sea battles and a main character that has character!
This story gives a view of sailing and war in 19th century
England. Read it with Master and Commander and Persuasion.
I first read my brother's copy in the early 1950s (I received and still have "In the Heart of the Rockies" ). Although G A Henty could be classified as a "Formula" writer and these books were written for teenagers they are still a great read. "Conduct and Courage" predates C S Forester's "Hornblower" series by several decades and could well have influenced Forester.
