In Search of a Kingdom: Francis Drake, Elizabeth I, and the Perilous Birth of the British Empire
Laurence Bergreen
For Elizabeth, Drake made the impossible real, serving as a crucial and brilliantly adaptable instrument of her ambitions to transform England from a third-rate island kingdom into a global imperial power. In 1580, sailing on Elizabeth’s covert orders, Drake became the first captain to circumnavigate the earth successfully.
