About this audiobook
Horatio Nelson can be seen as one of the most courageous, strategic, valiant British generals in history.

The British Empire stretched all the way from the Caribbean to Egypt and beyond. Needless to say, much help was needed in various areas in the world.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The narrator's performance was simply awesome, and so was the author's book. I literally did not see something bad about this book. If I am mistaken, then let me know about that. However, I found it to be almost perfect, and that's what mattered to me. In my point of view, it was quite perfect. There might have been a couple of barely recognizable errors in there, but they did not trouble me. Whenever you can listen to a storyteller who is that good, and about a topic that you're interested in, you do not care about the other parts. That's the end of the story.
