Cecil Louis Troughton Smith (1899-1966) wrote his novel «The Captain from Connecticut» in 1941, using the pseudonym C. S. (Cecil Scott) Forester. The story of «The Captain from Connecticut» is set at the tail end of the Napoleonic Wars, and the War of 1812, telling the adventures of Captain Josiah Peabody, who, in command of the USS Delaware, escapes the British Blockade out of New York City in the winter of 1813-1814 and sails south to destroy British commerce in the Caribbean.
