The Last Fight of the Revenge at Sea is a historical account of a naval battle that took place on September 10-11, 1591. The book is written by Walter Raleigh, a prominent figure in English history who served as a captain in the Royal Navy during the Elizabethan era. The battle was fought between the English ship, Revenge, under the command of Richard Grenville, and a fleet of Spanish ships. Despite being vastly outnumbered, Grenville and his crew fought valiantly, inflicting heavy damage on the Spanish ships before eventually being overwhelmed. The book provides a detailed description of the battle, as well as the events leading up to it and its aftermath. It also sheds light on the political and military tensions between England and Spain during this period. The Last Fight of the Revenge at Sea is a gripping account of a historic battle, and is a must-read for anyone interested in naval history or the Elizabethan era.Edited By Edward Arber.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
