After a long and gloomy reverie, in which I almost wished myself overboard, a sudden glow of patriotism was kindled within me, and presented my king and country as my patron. Well, then, I will be a hero! and, confiding in Providence, I will brave every danger!”
Horatio Nelson, as reported in Life of Nelson, Southey, 1813
To commemorate the 220th anniversary of the Battle of Trafalgar — and in it, the passing of Britain’s last great hero — James has recorded an hour-long interactive tour of Horatio Nelson’s life and what made him great.
Whether you want to learn from the principles of leadership and service that Nelson embodied or simply understand how he was raised and formed, this video is for you. We hope it gives you inspiration to either follow in his footsteps, or to raise children who live in light of his heroic example!
