"Springhaven: A Tale of the Great War" by R. D. Blackmore is a novel published in 1887. Set on England's Sussex coast during the Napoleonic Wars, it follows the sinister Captain Caryl Carne, a half-French, half-English villain who plots to aid a French invasion.

headstrong daughters, and brief appearances by both Nelson and Napoleon himself. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
