Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the Great Armada I fail to see what the asperities of theology have to do with the story of a naval campaign, and it seems to me that though the time for some inspired singer attempting the epic of the Armada may be far distant, and indeed may never come, it is time to attempt a record of the great struggle between the eets of Queen Elizabeth and King Philip, based on contemporary English and Spanish documents, and written, as history should be written, without any intention of proving this or that pre conceived theory.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Spanish Story of the Armada: And Other Essays The labour of investigation would have been very great, and the years which I could have devoted to it would at most have been none too many for so ambitious an enterprise. I was obliged by circumstances to lay my purpose aside until it was too late to begin; and it will fall to others, perhaps better qualified than myself, to execute what, if successfully performed, will be the best service that can now be rendered to modern history. Of my own attempts nothing has come, or now can come, save a few separate studies, such as the story of Queen Catherine's Divorce as related by Charles the Fifth's ambassadors, with the slight essays which form half this present volume, and have been already published in difi'erent periodicals.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Tercentenary of England's Great Victory Over Spain and the Armada, 1588-1888 Accepting this View as satisfactory, my preface shall con sist mainly of brief replies to these three inquiries. In reference to the first point, I answer that my little book does not treat of Philosophy, Science or Theology, though it is not out of harmony with what is known in these high spheres of thought. Nor does it belong to the more popular, if less elevated, realm of thought - the biographical fiction, or bistori cal romance. The sort to which it does belong, but of which it is merely a fragment, is the historical. It describes, how ever, an epoch of rare interest in the history of our Anglo Saxon race and of human progress.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Spanish Armada, A D. 1588: Or the Attempt of Philip II and Pope Sixtus V. To Re-Establish Popery in England A van few words will sumos by way of preface to the present volume. The Spanish Invasion, like the Gun powder Treason, is an event to which the Protestant reverts with feelings of the most unfeigned gratitude. In the present day, when the encroachments of Rome cannot be denied, it is desirable that such events as the Spanish Invasion and the Gunpowder Treason should be recalled to the recollection of the people. I have, in a previous work, submitted an account of the Gun powder Treason to the public: and as a companion to that work, I now offer a narrative of the proceedings connected with the Armada.

Download or read book The Spanish Armada written by Robert Hutchinson and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2014-06-10 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this dramatic hour-by-hour, blow-by-blow account of the Spanish Armada's attempt to destroy Elizabeth's England, Robert Hutchinson spins a compelling and unbelievable narrative. After the accession of Elizabeth I in 1558, Protestant England was beset by the hostile Catholic powers of Europe, including Spain. In October 1585, King Philip II of Spain declared his intention to destroy Protestant England and began preparing invasion plans, leading to an intense intelligence war between the two countries and culminating in the dramatic sea battles of 1588. Popular history dictates that the defeat of the Spanish Armada was a David versus Goliath victory, snatched by plucky and outnumbered English forces. In this tightly written and fascinating new history, Robert Hutchinson explodes this myth, revealing the true destroyers of the Spanish Armada—inclement weather and bad luck. Of the 125 Spanish ships that set sail against England, only 60 limped home, the rest wrecked or sank with barely a shot fired from their main armament. Using everything from contemporary eyewitness accounts to papers held by the national archives in Spain and the United Kingdom, Hutchinson re-creates one of history's most famous episodes in an entirely new way.

This book was released on 2018-03-05 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from State Papers Relating to the Defeat of the Spanish Armada, Anno 1588, Vol. 1 English - not the French - armies should consist of trained soldiers; that the French armies - not the English - should consist of raw levies of half-armed peasants. The device thus adopted was continued by Edward's successors, and was still in use under Elizabeth, telling to those who could understand it that the might and majesty of England rested on her navy. That this was fully proved in the summer of I 588 is a familiar story, but the following pages Show that few indeed of her statesmen, or warriors, or seamen, had realised the fact. They could believe that the fleet of England was capable of withstanding that of Spain that the armada, of itself, was not a thing to be feared but they never quite succeeded in getting rid of the notion that the Duke of Parma's army was still terrible. Wynter, indeed, with nigh fifty years' experience at sea, and memories of former expeditions to guide him, was sure that the enemy must find very great difficulty in the transport of the army, and that if the squadron in the Narrow Seas was kept up at its actual strength, the Prince's forces, being no other than that which he bath in Flanders at this time (20th of June), dare not come to the seas' p. Wynter's opinion is eminently practical. It was supposed that Parma might attempt a landing at Sheppey, Harwich or Yarmouth, places where a small charge will make a sufficient strength to withstand any sudden attempt; but in these princely actions a man cannot be too provident and no wisdom were it to put things to an even balance, when more weight may be added' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of England From the Fall of Wolsey to the Defeat of the Spanish Armada, Vol. 1: Henry the Eighth I-n periods like the present, when knowledge is On. 1. Every day extending, and the habits and thoughts of mankind are perpetually changing under the influence of new discoveries, it is no easy matter to throw ourselves back into a time in which for centuries the European world grew upon a single type, in which the forms of the father's thoughts were the forms of the son's, and the late descendant was occupied in treading into paths the footprints of his distant ancestors. So abso lutely has change become the law of our present condition, that it is identified with energy and moral health; to cease to change is to lose place in the great race; and to pass away from off the earth with the same convictions which we found when we entered it, is to have missed the best object for which we now seem to exist.
