Traflagar

Hi, today i will talk about the book: Trafalgar James Grant, HMS Norseman 1799- 1806 by Bryan Perrett, i hope you will enjoy this story. James Grant is the narrator in the story and talks us about his journal and the letters he recived and sent when hi was on the big and very nice boat Norseman. When James got to have 13 years his father asked him what job he would like to do and hi ansered that he would continue his father job but the father diden't wont so they needed to decide and after a lot of time they decided to send him on a militar boat. James needed a way to go on so the father sent a letter to the mother in Londodn and asked her to ask to her dauter if could ask to her housband if they could find a boat where James could work. James was very happy because when he would become big he could and work in the fleet of Admiral Nelson who destroyed the French fleet at the battle of the Nile. The book was named after Trafalgar because James was present in the war that was made onOctober 1805 but unsfurtunately he died the next year and like this his story ended. I hope you enjoyes this post on this book.
