Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life of Sir Walter Raleigh My object in this little book has been to gather round the person of Ralegh an account of the leading features of the age in which he lived, and by describing the events in which he took part, to show the work which Englishmen had to do in those days, and so briefly to tell the history of the time. I do not pretend to throw any new light upon any of the vexed problems connected with Ralegh´s life. I have been much indebted to Mr. Edwardes´s excellent collection of Ralegh´s letters, and should like to refer anyone who wishes for further particulars about him to Mr. Edwardes´s biography. For the general history I have followed mainly Ranke´s History of England, Mr. S. R. Gardiner´s History of England, 1603 to 1616, and his Prince Charles and the Spanish Match. Anyone anxious to know more of the history of James I. cannot do better than study Mr. Gardiners excellent and most interesting books.
