Trafalgar: The Fog of War

All I need is three days of fog, Napoleon told his admirals, and they would have his greatest enemy at their mercy and the world at his feet. In the event he had a lot more than three days, but it was the fog of war and in it, even Napoleon Bonaparte could lose his way. This is the story of the murders and intrigues, the myths and mysteries - and crucially the events at sea - that preceded the most famous battle in nautical history. This is Nathan Peake’s story of Trafalgar, the true story of the campaign.
