Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book edges and corners.

In May of 1588, on the order of Spain's King Philip, 30,000 soldiers and sailors armed with arquebuses and muskets set out to sea. A larger fleet had never before been assembled.

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.
