A Nelson Companion by C Maynard

Decorated with line illustrations, many of them contemporary, this compact book demonstrates that even today, we retain a wealth of expressions that derive directly from the Royal Navy of Jack Aubrey's time, while at the same time providing a perfect guide to the subject and its long - and unrivalled - history.
