Captain Horatio Hornblower is a fictional Napoleonic Wars era Royal Navy officer who is the protagonist of a series of novels by C.S. Forester. The original Hornblower tales began with the 1937 novel "The Happy Return".
There are many parallels between Hornblower and real naval officers of the period, notably, Admiral Lord Horatio Nelson.
Hornblower is described as "unhappy and lonely", but he is a courageous, intelligent, and a skilled seaman yet is burdened by his intense reserve and self-doubt and regards himself as cowardly and dishonest. His introverted nature isolates him from the people around him, including his best friend and his wives who never understand him. He suffers from chronic seasickness and is tone deaf.
