1795 Battle of Quiberon - Invasion of France (Hornblower 4)

The invasion of France in 1795 or the Battle of Quiberon was a major landing on the Quiberon peninsula by émigré, counter-revolutionary troops in support of the Chouannerie and Vendée Revolt, beginning on 23 June and finally definitively repulsed on 21 July. Most events in this video are fiction. Watch the Hornblower series for free here: The Frogs and the Lobsters (. The Wrong War) is an episode of the television program Hornblower. It is set during the French revolutionary wars and very loosely based on the chapter of the same name in C.S. Forester’s novel, Mr. Midshipman Hornblower and on the actual ill-fated Quiberon expedition of 1795. The main title is based on the often derogatory description of the French by the British (as well as other English speakers) and on the red coats of the British soldiers. The secondary title deals with Horatio’s own duty to the Crown and the alliance with the French and his struggle with his own sympathy towards the French revolutionaries.
