The story of the Spanish Armada threat that vanished as quickly as it came, is the subject of this study. The authors have reassessed documents, diaries and private papers lying forgotten in Spanish and Dutch archives and the material is augmented by underwater discoveries from the Armada wrecks. |
| Synopsis: |
At the end of July 1588, Philip II's Armada of 130 ships set sail against England. Within a month they were condemned to defeat. The authors spent 13 years reassessing the profusion of untapped documents, diaries and private papers lying forgotten in Spanish and Dutch archives. This material has been augmented by underwater discoveries from the Armada wrecks. -- . |
