"Author Richard Woodman writes the “Nathaniel Drinkwater” series of historical naval fiction novels. The series began publication in the year 1981, when “An Eye of the Fleet” was released. The series ended publication in the year 1988, when “Ebb Tide”, the fourteenth novel of the series, was released.

Richard Woodman retired in 1997 after a thirty-seven year long nautical career. He is unlike other modern naval historical novelists since he served afloat. Richard first went to sea when he was just sixteen years old as indentured midshipman and spent over a decade in command.

Each of the books takes place in a different period in Nathaniel Drinkwater’s life, as he is a different rank and has different adventures.

“An Eye of the Fleet” is the first novel in the “Nathaniel Drinkwater” series, which was released in the year 1981. Seeing action in Admiral Rodney’s dramatic Moonlight Battle of 1780, that sees Cyclops capture the Santa Teresa is the start of Nathaniel’s life at sea. HMS Cyclops becomes involved in going after American privateers that are a danger to British trade. "
