Roche is a detailed narrative of one of the most celebrated voyages in maritime history ? Sir Francis Drake's circumnavigation of the globe between 1577 and 1580 aboard his flagship, the Golden Hind. Drawing on contemporary accounts, navigational records, and later historical analysis, Roche reconstructs the planning, execution, and legacy of the expedition that secured Drake's place among the foremost seafarers of the Elizabethan age. The book opens with the political and economic climate of late sixteenth century England, setting the stage for the voyage's dual purpose: exploration and the disruption of Spanish dominance in the Americas. Roche examines the ship itself ? its design, armament, and suitability for long distance voyaging ? and introduces the crew whose skills and endurance would be tested over three years at sea. The narrative follows the Golden Hind from its departure at Plymouth, through the hazardous passage of the Strait of Magellan, and into the Pacific Ocean, where Drake's raids on Spanish settlements and treasure ships brought both immense wealth and diplomatic tension. Roche describes encounters with indigenous peoples, the challenges of navigation in uncharted waters, and the logistical demands of maintaining a small fleet far from home. Particular attention is given to the capture of the Spanish galleon Nuestra Señora de la Concepción, laden with silver and precious goods, and to Drake's decision to continue westward, completing the circumnavigation via the Spice Islands, the Cape of Good Hope, and back to England. The author explores the voyage's impact on England's maritime ambitions, its role in shaping perceptions of the wider world, and its enduring place in naval legend. Illustrated with maps, portraits, and reproductions of period documents, The Golden Hind combines historical scholarship with an accessible storytelling style. Roche presents Drake as both a product of his time and a figure whose daring and seamanship transcended it, offering readers a vivid account of a voyage that blended exploration, privateering, and national pride. ___________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________ INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: Please Note.
