Description
Admiral Lord Horatio Nelson was a colourful and complex character, whose supremely successful naval career quickly attained legendary status.
By 1803 he was Britain's paramount hero and already maimed with the loss of an arm and blind in one eye.
He returned to war when called back in May and spent a further two years at sea before dying at the battle of Trafalgar in 1805.
Today, two centuries after his death, the 'immortal memory' of Nelson endures.
In this book, leading historians provide a radical reappraisal of his life and times.
