Adventures in Time: Nelson, Hero of the Seas

One man will stop him: Horatio Nelson.

Horatio Nelson’s courage and bravery amaze everyone around him. He was just twelve when he joined the Navy, but showed no fear. How could someone so small and slight be so bold and daring? As he rises to world fame, he becomes a hero, loved by millions of people for his thrilling victories at sea, from the freezing waters of the North to the shores of Egypt.
