The Adventures of Horatio Hornblower (1952-1953)
- Starring: Michael Redgrave as Horatio Hornblower.
- Production: Produced by Harry Towers through his Towers of London syndicate in England.
- Broadcast: This 30-minute historical action and adventure series first aired in 1952 on Radio Luxembourg. Despite being produced in England, the BBC wasn't interested, so it was sent to the United States.
- US Broadcasts: CBS originally broadcast 52 episodes until July 17, 1953. It was later rebroadcast by ABC in 1954 and the Mutual Broadcasting System in 1957.
- Content: The series followed Hornblower's career from a young, seasick midshipman to an Admiral of the Fleet during the Napoleonic Wars. The plots were carefully crafted by Forester to avoid direct interference with actual historical battles, allowing Hornblower to be on his own significant missions.
