Sobre IBD

To a nation consumed by war, Admiral Horatio Nelson is now a hero and Britain’s best hope of victory. To those in power, he is an arrogant glory-seeker, too quick to disregard orders! Then there’s Nelson’s lover, Lady Emma Hamilton: shunned by the establishment for her checkered past. Nelson and Emma defy friends and enemies alike to follow destiny-as Nelson moves closer to the greatest naval battle in history.
