Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Napoleonic-era accounts of life aboard Royal Navy warships: “Readers of Patrick O’Brian and C. S. Forester will enjoy this collection” (Library Journal). At the dawn of the nineteenth century, the British Navy was the mightiest instrument of war the world had ever known. The Royal Navy patrolled the seas from India to the Caribbean, connecting an empire with footholds in every corner of the earth. Such a massive Navy required the service of more than 100,000 men—from officers to deckhands to surgeons. These are their stories. The inspiration for the bestselling novels by Patrick O’Brian and C. S. Forester, these memoirs and diaries, edited by Dean King, provide a true portrait of life aboard British warships during one of the most significant eras of world history. Their tellers are officers and ordinary sailors, and their subjects range from barroom brawls to the legendary heroics of Lord Horatio Nelson himself. Though these “iron men on wooden ships” are long gone, their deeds echo through the centuries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On October 21, 1805, in the midst of the Battle of Trafalgar, Admiral Lord Horatio Nelson and the H.M.S. Victory are enveloped by an unknown force which render Nelson and his entire crew unconscious in a moment and transport them through time to the year 793. When they awake, they find themselves adrift, not off Cape Trafalgar, but in the North Sea, off the coast of Lindisfarne Island. In the distance, they can see the flames from the burning monastery there, which, unknown to the men of the Victory, had been put to the torch by brutal Viking raiders earlier that day.Faced with this bizarre situation, Nelson must make some hard choices. Lost in a hostile world, with no friends, no home port, and no supplies, can he and his crew survive amid the violence and intrigue of the Viking Age?

Book excerpt: "The First Regiment Minnesota Volunteer Infantry was the first volunteer regiment offered in service to President Lincoln after the fall of Ft. Sumter. Men and boys attended patriotic rallies throughout the young state and signed their names to papers that pledged they would answer the president's call. They were strong men, toughened by rugged pioneer life, and in the next three years they drew on that strength time and again. The men of the First Minnesota served in nearly every major battle in the eastern campaign with the Army of the Potomac and were frequently cited for their professional conduct in the field and for their bravery--nowhere more so than at the Battle of Gettysburg, where their harrowing sacrifice saved the Union from defeat and helped turn the tide of the war. Every Man Did His Duty tells the individual stories of over a hundred men who served in the First Minnesota, from the regiment's commanders to its courageous, young privates. Each story includes a photograph of the soldier, allowing readers to put a face to the actions and history of the man. The included stories are a mix of courage, tragedy, and humor. Some men left the service for successful careers and loving families, whereas others were broken in their bodies and minds and Wayne Jorgenson's descriptions of the war's many ways of wounding sharpens our understanding of these soldiers' sacrifice, offering a worthy tribute to their valor"--Jacket.

Book excerpt: Admiral Lord Horatio Nelson was a colourful and complex character, whose supremely successful naval career quickly attained legendary status. By 1803 he was Britain's paramount hero and already maimed with the loss of an arm and blind in one eye. He returned to war when called back in May and spent a further two years at sea before dying at the battle of Trafalgar in 1805. Today, two centuries after his death, the 'immortal memory' of Nelson endures. In this book, leading historians provide a radical reappraisal of his life and times.
