Vice-Admiral Horatio Nelson, 1st Viscount Nelson, KB (1758-1805)
was an English admiral famous for his participation in the
Napoleonic Wars, most notably in the Battle of Trafalgar, where he
lost his life. It was as a result of these wars that he became one
of the greatest naval heroes in the history of the United Kingdom,
eclipsing Admiral Robert Blake in fame. His biography by the poet
Robert Southey appeared in 1813, while the wars were still being
fought. His love affair with Emma, Lady Hamilton, the wife of the
British Ambassador to Naples, is also well-known, and he is
honoured by the London landmark, Nelson's Column, which stands in
the centre of Trafalgar Square.
