The bestselling account of the Battle of Trafalgar, by the authors
of FINEST HOUR Two hundred years ago, Napoleon Bonaparte dominated
Europe and threatened Britain with invasion. Against him stood the
Royal Navy and the already legendary Admiral Horatio Nelson. On 21
October 1805, a massive naval battle off the coast of Spain decided
mastery of the seas. Then, over the following days and nights, the
battleships and their exhausted crews endured a gale of awesome
fury. As Captain Charles Tyler wrote to his wife Margaret, 'the
wind blew a perfect storm'. The authors of the bestselling FINEST
HOUR tell this story not only through the diaries, letters and
memoirs of the men who wrestled with the enemy and the elements,
but also through the eyes of their wives and children. Whether you
are already familiar with this period of history or are coming to
it for the first time, TRAFALGAR is a book that will enthral as it
illuminates an event whose repercussions still echo today.
