Beginning with a vivid recreation of Napoleon’s army assembling at Boulogne for the invasion of England; this day-by-day chronicle tells how the French fleet joined with their Spanish allies and set out for a decisive battle against the Royal Navy. Following events through the eyes of sailors on the gundeck as well as in the admiral’s cabins; the tale travels from the Mediterranean and the West Indies back to the coast of Spain as the rival fleets maneuvered for advantage.
