Historical and Heartfelt

There are a couple of things a book like this must have; if it's historical it must be accurate, and if an audio it must have the right narrator. This book has both, I listened to this in one go, from Nelson's beginning to that famous battle at Trafalgar and indeed those last intimate moments. Not only does the author take you every step of the way, the narrator Andrea Giodani 'involves' you. I thoroughly recommend the author, the title and the narrator. Amazon did a great job picking this audiobook. You won't be disappointed.
