Description
And, as if it didn't so much matter, he added - the biographer should possess a high standard of literary ability.
But yet I believe that the vindication of a man's lifework is almost an impossible task for even the most intimate of friends or the most assiduous and talented of Biographers, simply because they cannot possibly appreciate how great deeds have been belittled and ravaged by small contemporary men. These yelping curs made the most noise, as the empty barrels do and it's only long afterwards that the truth emerges out of the mist of obloquy and becomes history.
Remember it's only in this century that Nelson has come into his own.
