Includes detailed descriptions of Nelson's biggest victories, like the Struggle of Trafalgar. Includes Nelson's most famous quotes. "England expects that each man will do his work." (Nelson before the Struggle of Trafalgar) During the period of its history, Great britain has engaged within an uncountable amount of battles, but none of them of her military services heroes has already established a greater military services legacy than Admiral Lord Horatio Nelson, 1st Viscount Nelson, 1st Duke of Bronté. Whether planing a trip to Trafalgar Square or one of the hundreds of pubs called after him, relatively it becomes easy to assume that no Briton has cast as long a shadow. Nelson established fact across the world for his decisive triumph at Trafalgar, made even more legendary by the actual fact that he was mortally wounded at the level of his biggest feat. Which is understandable that any man who could thwart Napoleon's ambitions as well as Nelson does would earn a location in the annals books. But Nelson embodied every virtue of his homeland; a dashing, courageous military services officer who was impeccably cultured, and, of course, the best at what he does. Indeed, as the personification of the supremacy of the Royal Navy, the person and his life experienced a robust resonance well before his death. When Nelson's body was immersed in rum during the homeward voyage from Trafalgar, it is said that the sailors would steal a drink, thus imbibing the heart of their hero. Rum continues to be called "Nelson's Blood" in Britain's Royal Navy, and consumers can buy a spiced version at the pub in Burnham Thorpe. Nelson's strategy and techniques are taught at naval colleges throughout the world, and the existing UK authorities is, more than 200 years after his death, considering establishing a public holiday on the wedding anniversary of Trafalgar.
