Description
"This illustrated history places the Spanish Armada in its true context, as the most spectacular of Spain's continued attempts to return England to Catholicism, first through friendship, then by marriage and finally through war. It explains that the 1588 battle was only one in a series of Spanish naval campaigns against England - it was not until the seventeenth century that peace was fully assured. Winston Graham brings all his gifts as a storyteller to this work, making the momentous sea battles come to life and telling a superb tale of human hostility and passions."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
