Review:
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
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.
