The Trafalgar Chronicle

Journal of The 1805 Club

We carry stock of past editions, from 1990 to the current year, according to availability and what we can source second-hand.

The Official Storymap of The Trafalgar Way

“In November 1805 a naval messenger arrived in Falmouth, racing to deliver the formal dispatches from The Battle of Trafalgar, with the report of Nelson’s death, to London. The Official Storymap of The Trafalgar Way is the essential companion to understanding the people, places and events from this epic journey that helped shaped British history.”
