HISTORY -- Horatio Nelson, 1st Viscount Nelson, 1st Duke of Bronté KB (29 September 1758 ' 21 October 1805) was a British flag officer in the Royal Navy. He was noted for his inspirational leadership, superb grasp of strategy, and unconventional tactics, all of which resulted in a number of decisive naval victories, particularly during the Napoleonic Wars, (1797-1815). He was significantly wounded several times in combat, losing the sight of his right eye during the campaign in Corsica, and later the brutal amputation of his right arm in the unsuccessful attempt to conquer Santa Cruz de Tenerife in the Atlantic's Azore Islands off northeast Africa. He was shot and killed during his final pivotal victory at the naval Battle of Trafalgar against the combined Napoleonic French and Royal Spanish fleets off the southwest coast of Spain in 1805.

NOTES -- This is an item taken from a collection of Horatio Nelson, Battle of Trafalgar and HMS Victory stock which we currently hold. Many of the items are celebrating the 200th anniversary of the famous battle in 1805. Many of this large collection of items are available on the Travellers in Time website.
