    -PROFILE: Anonymous: Bernard Cornwell may be a prolific, best-selling author, but he's still trying to make a name for himself here (Alex Beam, December 23, 2004, The Boston Globe)

Cornwell once met O'Brian, whose work he greatly admires. ''He criticized me," Cornwell recalls. ''He once wrote, 'Cornwell and [Horatio Hornblower creator C.S.] Forester -- too much plot, not enough lifestyle.' He was fascinated by lifestyle and he was very good at it." Cornwell put Sharpe onboard a Royal Navy vessel in his 2000 novel ''Sharpe's Trafalgar" and matched O'Brian's penchant for detail topgallant sail for topgallant sail, with a stem-winding plot thrown in.
