Once again, it's time to raise a glass to the Immortal Memory of Lord
Nelson and his "band of brothers" who, 199 years ago today, defeated
the combined fleets of France and Spain at the battle of Trafalgar.
Nelson's leadership set a standard for all who followed him.
Horatio Hornblower was not present at Trafalgar. Nevertheless, as we
all know, he played a key role in the battle.
