Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 58 pp., 2 maps in text, plus 1 map on double page, and 11 plates (some folded). Drake's raids on Spanish towns on both sides of the Atlantic were aimed not only to gather treasure but to bring a military challenge to the empire of Phillip II. The voyage was lined also with the plantation projects of Raleigh, and ended with Drake bring home the discouraged settlers of the first Virginia colony. Although not a financial success, the expedition attracted wide attention in England and on the continent and was a prelude to the events of 1588. For over three centuries after the voyage the main source of information about it was the lively narrative, strongly propagandistic in tone, that was published in 1588 and 1589. In the present volume this account, attributed to Captain Walter Bigges, has been critically edited in the light of evidence now available from English and Spanish sources.
