About this listen
Admiral Lord Collingwood, the eldest son of a Newcastle merchant, went to sea in 1761 at the age of 13.
In his nearly fifty years in the Navy Collingwood's service took him to Boston, where he lived and fought during the American War of Independence; to Antigua, where he and Nelson both fell in love with Mary Moutray; to Corsica; Sicily; and Menorca, where he ended his career as the effective viceroy of the Mediterranean.

Illuminating and well written and researched
Narration could be a little more lively, but given the text it was a good job. Makes one wonder how many other unsung heroes of the era are to be explored.

Enlightening and thorough
An exciting view into the life of a perhaps lesser known British naval figure. Well paced and enjoyable naval history
