Enormously popular when published, Westward Ho! is the saga of Elizabethan sailors from the Devonshire coast who sail off into the unknown to found an empire for their queen. Moving at a breathless pace from start to finish, the story of the sailors’ adventures and conflicts with the Spanish make it an exhilarating read.
