The World of Jack Nastyface

In 1805, William Robinson volunteered for the Royal Navy, not knowing he would soon be plunged into the fierce action of the Battle of Trafalgar. Years later, he published his account of his six years at sea, all aboard HMS Revenge, under the pseudonym Jack Nastyface, in an account that is widely regarded as a must read for those interested in the period. This book not only presents his account, but expands upon it with explanations, illustrations, indexes, and added content. There are transcripts from some of the surviving logs of HMS Revenge, as well as correspondence from officers and men of the ship during the time he served aboard. Explore the world of Jack Nastyface like never before.
