[quote="Fluffy_Bunny":35ba8]Just finished reading Nelson, The Man & The Legend. Terry Coleman

I highly recommend Eames or anyone else interested in military command & stuff to read this as honour & glory & leadership= Nelson. "Glory is my object & that alone."
I think you chaps might like this guy because, basically, he was a nutcase... He actually broke his ship off from his Commanders line of battle formation & attacked an enemy fleet all by himself. oOo: The difference is though, he won ed:

I'm also reading a book about the Crusades but brought another huge book about the entire Middle Ages & now I'm reading that.[/quote:35ba8]

i might pick that up, ive always been fascinated by nelson but i havent read many books on him. the crusades are always awesome to read about, i recomend "the crescent and the cross" i forget who wrote it i read a few years back and it was awesome.
