It includes an historical timeline, a blog and a forum.
The shadows of Trafalgar still obscure the sight of the French naval historians about Napoleon's Navy.
They fought with courage and it's not their fault if the emperor was a total ignoramus when it came to naval matters. He finally got his sea legs on board the Northumberland. Confused

Here are, for example, two interesting links about the Implacable (ex Dugay Trouin) :
