This is a good look at the life of Nelson. It focuses on his career, rather than his private life, although these aspect are explored. It also looks at his affect on British warfare and as an Icon of his age. I found it to be a little dry in places (Hence the 4 stars), but the battle scenes were genuinely exciting to read and it was fascinating to read about this national hero. Lambert has obviously done his research for this book, and overall the writing style is easy to read and enjoy. If you like this period of history, or want to learn more about Nelson's life then this is a pretty good starting place.
