The Life of Horatio, Lord Nelson

Originally published in 1813, The Life of Horatio, Lord Nelson is one of the classics of early biography. The author, Robert Southey, was appointed Poet Laureate of England in the same year he published this book. Still regarded as England's greatest naval hero, Vice Admiral Horatio Nelson is here depicted by a contemporary biographer, with access to many of the people who knew Nelson intimately. Our edition has been carefully edited by popular novelist and naval historian J.T. McDaniel, and includes a new Introduction and copious notes, making this one of the best modern editions of Southey's classic work.
