Book Description:
This almanac is a glorious jumble of facts and events brought together as a primer for the aspiring student of Nelson's era. Essentially, the book has three basic elements. It is biographical, with articles written by some of the most respected modern day Nelson experts and historians. It is a book of his letters, with Nelson himself giving us first hand information of his experiences. And it is a window on history, illuminating the events and people that characterised the tumultuous times in which Nelson lived. Structured as a diary, each month opens with an article covering a particular aspect of Nelson's life or naval career. These are followed by days of the week, with a date for Nelson taken from his letters, together with a corresponding date in world history during Nelson's lifetime. Certain dates are further embellished in shorter articles and illustrated with images from the archives of the Warwick Leadlay Gallery.
