Book Description
Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book edges and corners.
In the Voyage of the Armada, David Howarth brilliantly conveys the drama of the Spanish Armada's progress. He brings to life the personalities of the men who influenced its course, from the dogmatic and irrational Philip II to Don Juan Martinez de Recalde to Don Pedro and Don Diego de Valdes, who were cousins but also bitter enemies, to the Spanish soldiers and sailors who unquestioningly ventured into unknown seas to confront their fates.
