Long after the Battle of Trafalgar, Admiral Lord Nelson’s story continued in one of the most spectacular state funerals ever staged in Britain. Nelson’s State Funeral 1806: How to Bury a National Hero offers the first full account of the ceremonies, rituals, and national mourning that honoured the country’s greatest naval commander.
Drawing on extensive research and rare illustrations, authors Amos and Roeder reveal the extraordinary planning behind the funeral procession, the symbolism woven into each stage of the event, and the public emotion that swept across the nation. This richly detailed volume is essential reading for Nelson admirers, naval history enthusiasts, and anyone interested in Britain’s traditions of national commemoration.
