John Hallam in The Famous Voyage by FRANCIS DILLON with Elizabeth Bell Andrew Sachs Brian Carroll Philip Fox and Graham Faulkner
' Valiant, just. wise, milde, honest, godly Drake.'
' The arrantest knave, the vilest villain, the falsest thief and the cruellest murderer that ever was born.' Drake's epic voyage round the world lasted three years and confirmed him as the greatest of England's national heroes.
Yet after 400 years the enigma of his character
, remains.
