Sir Francis Drake (1540-1596) sailed around the world, his exploits opening the way for England’s colonization of America, taking power from Spain on land and sea. Henry VIII, Queen Elizabeth, Sir Walter Raleigh, and the Spanish Armada also figure in this 1918 history, which includes a portrait of Elizabethan England and life afloat in Tudor times.
