Dean King is one of my favorite authors and is very knowledgeable on the Age of Nelson. I would rate this anthology higher if it didn't contain the manuscripts by Nagle, an enthusiastic but somewhat illiterate writer who tends to ramble a bit. But that's just personal preference. Given that, the stories, put together, do accomplish the purpose of giving the reader a wide-spectrum view of the Age of Nelson, and readers looking for true accounts of this age, versus historical fiction, will appreciate the enormous effort this collection must have taken.
