As a suggestion for the further improvement of this article Patrick O'Brian's novels The Thirteen Gun Salute and The Nutmeg of Consolation appear to draw heavily on the events around the loss of Alceste. Nick-D (talk) 10:04, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I do not think the Alceste was in Pensacola in December 1814, but was moored off Pensacola. There had been a diplomatic incident in Pensacola a month previous. If I recall what I have recently seen, this should be amended, sources permitting. Keith H99 (talk) 11:36, 18 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
