Written and illustrated by a husband and wife team, known for their travel books. The book is in very nice shape. The jacket did it's job in protecting the book, but it paid the price. It is intact, but it shows major wear on the corners and edges, with a few small chips missing from the spine bottom, and the top 1/4' of the spine is missing. Presents better than it sounds in a nice clear archival protector. Priced accordingly. Photos upon request.

Pictorial endpapers. Clean internals; internal hinges are sound and not split. 604 pp 4to. This work has all the fascination of a romance, yet it is both biographical and historical. The events occur in the time of Queen Elizabeth and with the adventures of the hero of the story are interwoven the lives of many heroic men, to whom the author believes that England owes much of her naval and commercial glory. To give these persons their just due seems t be the design of the writer. The book is ably written in commemoration of these men of Devon- "Drakes and Hawkins, Gilberts and Raleighs, Grenvilles and Oxenhams, their voyages and battles, their heroic lives and heroic deaths." The self-sacrifice and heroism, the faith and valor depicted n these pages with the romance connected with it, invest the story with more than ordinary interest, for we consider it a work of uncommon vigor and power. A clean very presentable copy. 12 color plates and 38 pen and ink illustrations. Signed by others involved with.
