Nelson's Victory is a vivid, gripping account of our greatest naval
hero; Jackson's command of detail and story make this one of the best
brief maritime narratives ever written. NICHOLAS LEZARD
The fourth title in Kevin Jackson's magnificent maritime history series,
Nelson's Victory, explores the remarkable achievements of the British
naval and national hero Horatio Nelson and his victory and death at The
Battle of Trafalgar. As with other titles in the series, Jackson
demolishes the myths that abound about Nelson's nature and reveals the
real man behind hyperbole. Nelson was a smooth operator who demonstrated
considerable political instincts and worked his way up the naval ladder
with ruthless ambition.
History as you long to read it, charismatic, concise and unputdownable.
