About this book
The Memoirs of Admiral Lord Beresford are the recollections of one of the most colourful officers of the Victorian and Edwardian Royal Navy, written by himself and published in 1914. Beresford served across the great age of the ironclad fleet, from gunboat actions and the bombardment of Alexandria to high command and a stormy public quarrel over how the navy should be run. He also sat in Parliament, and his memoir moves between sea service, politics, and society with plenty of strong opinion and anecdote. For anyone interested in naval history before the First World War, it is a lively firsthand source.
