: With regard to C.S. Lewis's Horblower,
Normally, I forbear to cast the first stone over innocent slips and typos, but this one opens up all kinds of images. C.S. Lewis might not have minded being mistaken for C.S. Forester -- he liked a good tale -- but I think he would have drawn the line at the implication offered by the slight mangling of Horatio's surname.
