Bag om Nelson

Nelson by John Knox Laughton is a comprehensive biography of one of Britain's greatest naval heroes, Horatio Nelson. The book delves deep into Nelson's life, from his humble beginnings as the son of a clergyman to his rise through the ranks of the Royal Navy to become one of the most celebrated commanders in history.

The book also examines the political and social context of Nelson's time, shedding light on the wider world in which he lived and fought. Laughton's writing is engaging and informative, and he draws on a wealth of primary sources to paint a vivid portrait of this legendary figure. Nelson is a must-read for anyone interested in naval history, British history, or the life of one of the greatest military leaders of all time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
