为什么值得读
- 双主角形象丰满，同行冒险充满乐趣
- 文笔极佳，重读价值高
- 生动还原拿破仑战争时期的航海生活
这是 Aubrey/Maturin 系列的第一部。本书是 O'Brian 广受好评的 Aubrey-Maturin 系列的启航之作，以拿破仑战争为背景，讲述了皇家海军军官 Captain Aubrey 与舰医兼情报员 Stephen Maturin 之间的非凡友谊。O'Brian 以引人入胜的细节生动描摹了 Nelson 舰队中战舰上的生活：军官室与下层甲板水手的日常对话口吻、伙食、鞭笞惩罚、风与帆索的奥秘，以及巨舰接战时侧舷齐射的轰鸣。- 出版商

兰辛（Lansing）那本书确实是经典。这俩虽然没啥可比性，但我最近正在重读帕特里克·奥布莱恩（Patrick O'Brian）的《怒海远征》（Master and Commander）系列，论冒险题材，这套书绝对是天花板。杰克·奥布里（Jack Aubrey）和斯蒂芬·马图林（Stephen Maturin）携手经历拿破仑战争，足迹真可谓踏遍全球，历经各种冒险……
The Lansing book really is a classic. This is hardly comparable, but I'm rereading the Master and Commander series (Patrick O'Brian) and you just can't beat that for adventure. Jack Aubrey and Stephen Maturin go through the Napoleonic Wars together, traveling literally all over the world, and having adventures…
帕特里克·奥布莱恩的《怒海远征》系列这么多年来一直陪伴着我，我也重读过很多遍。 对我来说，吸引我的并不是海战——我对打仗其实没多大兴趣——而是那文笔、人物刻画，以及跟着杰克·奥布里和斯蒂芬·马图林漫步人生的那种意趣。
The "Master & Commander" Series by Patrick O'Brian has been a great companion to me over the years and over many re-reads. For me it's not about the sea battles -which I don't find particularly interesting- but rather about the writing style, the character development, and the fun of ambling through life with Jack Aubrey and Stephen Maturin.
……对人家来说这还是第三语言？天哪。就连纳博科夫年轻时也说英语，同时还会俄语和法语。我觉得“历史”这个问题很有意思。就我个人而言，我宁愿把《怒海远征》系列读上三遍，也不想去啃枯燥乏味的拿破仑战争史。但康拉德的书总被归为“虚构小说”，即便你能从中了解到海量当年的真实生活，而这些东西你根本不可能……
…for whom it was a third language? Jeez. Even Nabokov spoke English as a youth, along with Russian and French. I think the question of "history" is very interesting. Personally, I'd much rather read the Master and Commander series a third time than read a boring history of the Napoleonic Wars. But Conrad's books are always regarded as "fiction" even though you learn an awful lot about life back then, which you wouldn't get…
……a) 我们低估了一阶工作（first-order work）的价值，并且 b) 我们追求自动化的步子往往迈得太大（k8s 就是个绝佳的例子）。也许我的想法受到了最近阅读帕特里克·奥布莱恩那套优秀的《怒海远征》历史小说系列的影响（讲的是18世纪初的英国帆船），但缺乏自动化本身也是这种浪漫的一部分——单单从“这里”到“那里”，就得付出巨大的努力。而且谁知道呢？……
…a) we undervalue first-order work, and b) our automation reach often exceeds our grasp (k8s being an excellent example). Perhaps my thinking is colored by my recent read of Patrick O'Brian's excellent "Master and Commander" series of historical novels, about early 18th century English sailing ships, but the lack of automation is part of the romance - just to get from "here" to "there" required enormous effort. And who knows?…
吉道尔（Guidall）朗读的两本书我很喜欢，但当年有好几年通勤时间，我都在听帕特里克·图尔（Patrick Tull）朗读的帕特里克·奥布莱恩的《怒海远征》系列，我不确定以后还能不能找到能与之媲美的朗读者了。听着就像你的英国叔叔在跟你唠他在皇家海军服役时的陈年旧事。
I've enjoyed two books read by Guidall, but I spent several years of my commute listening to Patrick Tull read Patrick O'Brian's Master & Commander series, and I'm not sure any other narrator will ever match that for me. It feels like your British uncle is telling you stories about his time in the Royal Navy.
詹姆斯·C·斯科特的《反谷》（Against the Grain）。对人类早期历史的解读让人大开眼界。从《怒海远征》开篇的整套“奥布里-马图林”系列。文笔绝妙，幽默、有趣，人物刻画深刻，而且满载着耐人寻味的哲学和人生洞见。这些书是我的精神避难所：和这套书的大多数书迷一样，我全都读过……
Against the Grain by James C. Scott. Eye opening take on early stages in history The entire Aubrey-Maturin series starting with Master and Commander. Exquisite writing, funny, interesting, deep characters and chock full of interesting philosophy and life observations. These books are my happy place: like most fans of the series I have read them all…
