O knihe
Originally published in 1899, this work contains a wealth of information on the life of one of Britain's most famous military leaders, Admiral Horatio Nelson. The following passage is taken from its foreword:
'THE words De mortuis nil nisi verum-""Of the dead nothing but truth""-were written by the late Mrs. Gamlin in my copy of her Life of Emma Lady Hamilton.
This motto has been chosen to face this purely personal history of Lord Nelson and his friends, because it embodies the spirit in which the gifted writer conceived and wrote the book-spurred thereto by a strong sense of justice, which was roused in her by the perusal of some Nelson biographies, written by celebrated historians, and published during late years.
""De mortuis nil nisi verum"" The courteous reader is requested to remember this motto when examining the chain of evidence brought forward in this book in defence of the honour of Lord Nelson, and in justice to his memory.'
