Set against the turbulent backdrop of the mid-nineteenth century British Empire, Badge of Glory thrusts Captain Richard Blackwood and his Royal Marines into the brutal heart of the slave trade conflict off the West African coast and the bloody chaos of the Crimean War. Douglas Reeman — the undisputed master of naval and military fiction — chronicles with vivid authenticity the honour, sacrifice, and moral complexity that define men forged in the crucible of war, tracking Blackwood as he leads his men through campaigns that test the very limits of courage and conscience. Reeman writes with the precision of a seasoned naval historian and the dramatic instinct of a born storyteller, rendering the fog of battle and the weight of command with equal conviction. Badge of Glory stands as the first volume in the acclaimed Blackwood family saga, laying the foundation for a sweeping generational epic that will carry readers across continents and conflicts — leaving them hungry to follow the family's fortunes through the wars yet to come.
