Friends who have been members for a few years no doubt recall previous talks from Peter for their levity and fascinating historical insights into Nelson, highlighting both the myths and the reality. 

This talk tells the story of; ‘How Nelson recovered from the disaster of being seriously wounded at Santa Cruz Tenerife and having his right arm amputated to becoming the Hero of the Battle the of Nile when he annihilated Napoleon’s Fleet at the Bay of Aboukir’.

You can be sure that we will not be disappointed and will of course round off the talk with a tot of rum and a resounding toast.
