Lord Nelson sailed across the ocean, but tides can turn and winds can blow. This exploration of his short life takes a balanced view of his achievements and failures as not necessarily making for smooth sailing.

With plates and diagrams.

“A critical study from the naval officer’s angle.”—The Naval Review

"Captain Grenfell has both the background and literary ability to bring the whole dramatic story brilliantly alive."—San Francisco Chronicle

"A remarkably lucid account."—Time Magazine

"Thoroughly rewarding."—New York Times

"Full of dramatic interest."—Times Literary Supplement
