This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1813 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER II. CONTEXTS. Nelson goes to France during the peace.--Re-appointed to the Boreas, and stationed at the Leeward Islands -- His firm oonduct concerning the American interlopers, and the contractors.--Marries and returns to England.--Is on the point of quitting the service in disgust.--Manner of life while unemployed. Appointed to the Agamemnon on the breaking out of the war of the French Revolution. " I Have closed the war," said Nelson, in one of his letters, " without a fortune; but " there is not a speck in my charaeter. True " honour, I hope predominates in my mind " far above riches." He did not apply for a ship because he was not wealthy enough to live on board in the manner which was then become customary. Finding it, therefore, prudent to economise on his half pay during the peace, he went to France, in company with capt. Macnamara, of the navy, and took lodgings at St. Omer's. The death of his favourite sister Anne, who died in consequence of going ont of the ball-room, at Bath, when heated with daneing, affeeted his father so much, that it had nearly occasioned him to return in a few wecks. Time, however, and reason and religion, overcame this grief in the old man; and Nelson continued at St. Omer's long enough to fall in love with the daughter of an English clergyman. This second attachment appears to have been less ardent than the first; for, upon weighing the evils of a straitened income to a married man, he thought it better to leave France, assigning to his friends something in his accounts as the cause. This prevented him from accepting an invitation from the Count of Dcux Ponts to visit him at Paris, couched in the handsomest terms of acknowledgement for the treatment which he had received on board the Albemarle....

When Admiral Mahan, passed away in 1914, his ideas and thoughts lived on in his writings, which spanned the naval strategy of his own times and the lessons learnt from history. They are still read at the modern naval academies and the ideas permeate the teachings at Annapolis. A flag officer in the U.S. Navy who fought during the American civil war for the Union forces, his works have gained a fame that makes him the foremost of the naval historians of the late 1800’s. Of enduring interest is his two volume history of Horatio Nelson, the hero of the Royal Navy and the battle of Trafalgar. An epic and tragic figure in age that abounds with them, the victor of Trafalgar who never lived past that day to see his fame endure is a favourite for biographies, however few are as balanced and detailed as Mahan’s. The second volume of the biography focuses on the years 1800 to 1805, which were an exceptionally trying and busy time for all Royal Navy officers, but also pivotal to Nelson’s development and led to his masterful action at Trafalgar. Nelson’s role in the pre-emptive strike at the Danish fleet at Copenhagen, and his anger nearly boils over with superiors who he considers not forward-thinking or aggressive enough in what was a conservative arm of the forces. Nelson’s life at home is not ignored or passed over and his life with Lady Hamilton and their daughter Horatia are covered although in less details than modern biographies. Finally the epic, tragic and brilliant battle of Trafalgar which ended the French hopes of global dominance by sea but also Nelson’s life. Illustrations – Vice Admiral Nelson, Vice Admiral Nelson, Vice Admiral Hyde-Parker, H.M ships Agamemnon, Captain, Vanguard, Elephant and Victory, Admiral Collingwood, Meeting of Nelson and Wellington, Vice Admiral Lord Nelson, Captain Thomas Masterman Hardy, Horatia (22 year old). Maps – Baltic and approaches, Battle of Copenhagen (2 maps), English channel and North Sea, Sardinia, North Atlantic, Plans of attack of the French and Spanish fleets (2 plans), Plan for the battle of Trafalgar (2 plans), The attack of Trafalgar.
