Summary/Abstract |
Each year as we sit down to our beef, and toast the immortal memory, we celebrate the life and death of the admiral who epitomizes leadership and command at sea, Nelson is the ultimate expression of tactical and strategic skill in naval warfare. However, the truth of Trafalgar is for more complex. No mater what the brilliance of Britannia's God of War, the battle was won a full half century earlier by a man whom the modern royal navy has largely forgotten, but whose achievements laid the foundation for a century of global dominance and the establishment of an empire the like of which has never been seen since.

Summary/Abstract |
WHEN GREAT powers begin to experience erosion in their global standing, their leaders inevitably strike a pose of denial. At the dawn of the twentieth century, as British leaders dimly discerned such an erosion in their country's global dominance, the great diplomat Lord Salisbury issued a gloomy rumination that captured at once both the inevitability of decline and the denial of it. "Whatever happens will be for the worse," he declared. "Therefore it is our interest that as little should happen as possible." Of course, one element of decline was the country's diminishing ability to influence how much or how little actually happened.
