Sir Walter Ralegh and the new world / by John W. Shirley.
Shirley chronicles the major events in the life of Ralegh set against the background of the court of England's Queen Elizabeth I including Ralegh's meteoric rise as the queen's favorite, his frustrations with his colonization efforts, and his fall from grace that ended with his execution. This is a fascinating history of Elizabethan England, its leading personalities, and its deadly intrigue.
