MEDIAINFO
Textbook in PDF format Тo mark the bicentenary of trafalgar, fought in October 1 805, comes The Trafalgar -JL. Companion, which surpasses everything previously published on the battle in both scale and authority. Mark Adkin not only describes the Trafalgar campaign and the battle itself in unprecedented detail, he also covers Nelson’s career and earlier actions as well as providing a wealth of background information on contemporary naval life, seamanship, gunnery, signalling, tactics and much else. The 200-plus illustrations, a central feature of the book, include paintings of uniforms, portraits of individual ships, drawings showing how the ships were constructed and worked by their crews, maps and stage-by-stage battle diagrams, all in full colour. Throughout, the main text is supplemented by boxes containing relevant anecdotes or illustrating aspects of naval life. The book starts with a prologue describing Nelson’s death at the height of the battle. This is followed by a section on the campaign leading up to Trafalgar and by sections on the ships of the time, guns and gunnery, and the crews (officers and seamen in the French and Spanish fleets as well as the Royal Navy). There is then a section of fleet comparisons with full details of each ship and its crew, and another on command and control. The detailed description of the battle itself is followed by an account of the subsequent storm and its aftermath and an epilogue on Nelson’s funeral. Alternate sections cover Nelson’s boyhood and early years in the Navy, his affair with Emma Hamilton (when he flagrantly ignored Admiralty orders, behaviour which would have got any other officer court-martialled), and the six other main actions in which he commanded or took part: the siege of Calvi in 1794, the fight with the (fa Ira, the Battle of St Vincent, the attack on Santa Cruz, and the battles of the Nile and Copenhagen
