The Battle of Trafalgar crowned the Royal Navy as undisputed sovereign of the world's oceans. Yet just seven years after Nelson's final victory, British ships were at war with a challenger from the new world - the United States of America. This is the story of the formation of the most formidable fighting force in the world.
