The Trafalgar Chronicle, sponsored by The 1805 Club, is the
publication of choice for new research about the Georgian Navy,
sometimes called Nelson's Navy', though its scope includes all the
sailing navies of the period from 1714 to 1837. Our expert
contributors for 2022 reside in the UK, US, Canada, and Denmark.
Their contributions tell stories of drama, political intrigue,
daring, ingenuity, war, and adventure on the world's oceans. This
year's volume is based on the theme of scientific and technological
advances in the navies of the Georgian era. Theme-related articles
document aspects of the Industrial Revolution, describing
developments, innovations, and inventions in manufacturing,
engineering, gunnery and armaments, charting and navigation,
sailing tactics, shipboard medicine, and explorations of the
natural world. In the tradition of recent editions, the 2022
Trafalgar Chronicle also contains biographical sketches of Nelson's
contemporaries: Sir Harry Neale and George Matcham, brother-in-law
to Lord Nelson. Two additional topics of general interest include a
new perspective on single ship actions in the War of 1812 and a
riveting tale of a futile Danish Navy expedition to Morocco in
1751. Handsomely illustrated, this issue will make a fascinating
and admired addition to any naval history library.
