Summary: The circumstances of Ralegh's final enterprise have been the subject of heated controversy ever since he himself produced his 'Apologie' and James I responded with the Declaration. The justification of the present volume lies in the fact that it brings together for the first time all the important letters and official documents of English origin relating to the episode. a number of which were not known to previous writers. and at the same time presents entirely new evidence drawn from contemporary Spanish sources.ISBN: 9060727045.
