Talks & Lectures

Over the past few years I have been fortunate to speak for a variety of organisations, at numerous venues and military establishments, on a number of historical topics.

I am confident speaking on a wide range of subjects relating to naval & maritime history, and whilst I predominantly focus on the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, my research interests cover numerous areas within the long eighteenth century and beyond.

A few of my previous lecture topics are listed below.

• The Battle of Trafalgar
• Leadership in Adversity: Lessons from Shackleton, Scott, and Amundsen
• The Battle of the Nile
• Counter piracy initiatives in the Indian Ocean
• Women in shipping & maritime
• The Life & Career of Lord Nelson

• The evolution of naval gunnery
• Naval traditions & 'Jackspeak'

• The Trafalgar Way and Trafalgar Dispatches
• Royal Navy commemoration and memorials
• Impressment & The War of 1812
