Nelson: The Sword of Albion by John Sugden is the most authoritative and intimate portrait written of Horatio Nelson In this epic biography of history's most celebrated naval commander, acclaimed historian John Sugden separates fact from myth to offer a powerful portrait of the hero of Trafalgar. As was true of the Sugden's riveting account of Horatio Nelson's early years ("Nelson: A Dream of Glory," 2005), this comprehensive life of Lord Nelson is built from largely overlooked primary documents, letters, and diaries that reach across two centuries to invite us to share Nelson's multifaceted life.
