Danish Admiral Niels Juel's motto, nec temere, nec timide ("neither rash nor timid"), has been the guiding principle for naval officers in the Danish Navy since the 1700s. As a master mariner, the naval officer is responsible for the ship and crew, and many a master mariner has had to make decisions that could mean life or death for themselves and their crew.


Neither rash nor timid tells 11 dramatic stories from the Navy's work. From the fight against Algerian corsairs in the 1700s to the wars of 1848-51 and 1864 to World War 2. World War II and today's efforts against pirates in the Horn of Africa. This is the story of the naval officers and naval guests who, often far from Denmark, have done their best to carry out orders from the king or the Danish government. In their own words, they tell how they experienced the battles on the gun deck, on the bridge, in the rigging and in the engine room.


The book is illustrated with over 200 images, many of which have not previously been published.
