Nelson was an extraordinary mix – described by N A M Rodgers as ‘Vulnerable and weak as a man, Nelson was also a leader of unequalled ardour, courage, generosity and professional genius’. We hear about Nelson’s military genius, and your chance to support a new TV project

Thanks again for the opportunity to share my interest in this subject. I often think of Nelson as ‘awesome’ in the original sense of the word- he certainly inspired terror in his enemies!
Wonderful Podcast. Good luck with your project.
Won’t let me register my interest.
Great guest episode…very exciting stuff.
We in America don’t have this kind of Naval history so it is a treat to think about some of the adventures these guys had. We have incredible tales from WWII, of course, but those seem kind of…”familiar” I guess since they were on ships not so different from what we still use today. To think of just steering a huge sailing vessel, let alone fight with one is just mind boggling.
Great, Adam, well done. What a good podcasting voice you have.
Where do I sign up in favor of the Proposed Nelson series. I would certainly watch it. Really enjoyed his podcast.
