- Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2008Like a glimpse into another world, this is a must have book for anyone who wants to understand Nelson's Navy. Many history books concentrate on the facts of what happened, how many ships each side had, their broadside weight of metal etc. But this book explores the inner world of the men's minds - how they saw themselves; how they transfigured the horror of war into glory, and a profession based on killing people into something noble and admirable.
If you're a fan of that peculiarly 18th Century combination of intolerable violence and rational, delicate, chivalric restraint, this cannot fail to fill you with glee, as well as new understanding.
If you are only ever going to get one book about the British Royal Navy, this should be the one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Incredible!
Having recently been to see the ship Victory. I wanted to know more. This is an incredible story about a time. A man and a battle. A great read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very energetic history
