This certainly cries out for further explication:
- "Forester had a complicated early life, including imaginary parents and a secret marriage."

- You sure got that right, Ortolan88! Also, how his pen name is Forester and his son's name is Forester? Are we in The Twilight Zone here? Spalding 00:29, Mar 22, 2005 (UTC)

- Yeah, can someone please dig into this. I read Forester's autobiography, where he had parents. Where did this imaginary parents thing come from? Seminumerical 23:45, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

I added a number of non-Hornblower works. Does anyone know if there is a Galapagos Island called "Resolution"? It seems to be fictious, but I'm not absolutely sure.
I used the included links, Amazon.com and IMDB.com to research the details. Henry Troup 17:41, 3 Jan 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Dulwich
SLight change: I added Dulwich College aswell as Alleyns, as he attended both schools one after the other. (Dulwich 1915 -16) Alleyns before. BFS
[edit] Bernard Cornwell
In a memo to the Sharpe appreciation society published along with Sharpe's Prey, Cornwell writes this: "I knew what I wanted to write. It was going to be a land-based version of C.S. Forester’s Hornblower books."
I am adding a note in the notes section to reflect this. (If no one objects in the next few days that is.) Z07 00:17, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
