Review:
- it provides a clear and concise account ... a fitting literary monument to Britain's greatest naval hero. -- Navy News, November 2001

.. no work will ever achieve the special status in the Nelson gallery as this book. -- Model Boats, October 1999

..Southey's work is not only a superb biography but a 'period piece' of Regency writing to set beside Jane Austen and Sir Walter Scott. -- Contemporary Review, February 2000
Book Description:
Robert Southey, the poet and contemporary of Nelson, captures the essence of Nelson's personality and the spirit of the times, in what is widely regarded as the finest biography yet of Lord Admiral Nelson. Southey was thirty-one years old when the Battle of Trafalgar was fought and he breathed in all the heady atmosphere.
