The Sea Dogs of England
This is a pulse-pounding novel of four momentous years of history and in particular of Sir Francis Drake - the Golden Admiral.
The story begins in 1585 when Philip II of Spain began treacherously impounding English merchant ships, seizing their cargoes, imprisoning their crews and hoisting the red and yellow ensign of Castile and Aragon on their sturdy masts. But the English struck back, particularly Drake. He sacked Santigo and San Domingo and Cartagena. He boldly sailed into Cadiz and smashed a gathering fleet.
The climax of his fiery career came in that great running sea duel - the battle of the Armada - when Drake and his fellow sea dogs smashed forever the arrogant menace of Spain.
