Omschrijving

Drake and the Tudor Navy Volume 1 is a historical book written by Julian S. Corbett that provides an in-depth account of the rise of England as a maritime power during the Tudor era. The book focuses on the life and achievements of Sir Francis Drake, one of the most renowned naval commanders of the time, and his pivotal role in shaping the Tudor navy.The first volume covers the period from the accession of Henry VIII to the death of Elizabeth I, exploring the political, economic and social factors that led to the growth of England's naval power. It also delves into the development of naval tactics, the construction of ships, and the training of sailors and officers.The book offers a detailed analysis of Drake's career, from his early days as a sailor to his exploits as a privateer and his service to the crown. It also examines his contributions to the defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588, which marked a turning point in England's naval history.Throughout the book, Corbett provides a wealth of historical detail and insight, drawing on primary sources such as letters, diaries, and official records. The writing style is engaging and accessible, making it an enjoyable read for both scholars and general readers interested in Tudor history and naval warfare.In Two Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
