WHILE QUANTITIES LAST
(1580 A.D.)
In this exciting volume, he provides a thrilling glimpse of the struggle between Great Britain and Spain for supremacy of the high seas, as seen through the eyes of a sixteenth-century teenager, Ned Hearne.
Along with three friends, young Ned is swept up in one adventure after another as he accompanies the daring English mariner Francis Drake on amazing voyages of discovery. An eyewitness to the great naval battle between the English fleet and the Spanish Armada, Ned has firsthand views of England's rise as the world's most powerful sea-going nation.
A rousing, old-fashioned tale of ruthless life on the high seas Under Drake's Flag introduces today's young readers to one of yesteryear's most widely read authors--a writer whose many talents earned him the title "the Prince of Storytellers."
G.A. Henty wrote vastly popular, carefully researched books about fictional youngsters who lived during critical periods of history. A prolific nineteenth-century author, G.A. Henty (1832-1902) celebrates family loyalty, honor, bravery, and determination in the face of adversity. Set against the backdrop of an exciting historical era, this story, recently rediscovered by young readers, will excite the imaginations of today's youngsters as much as it thrilled readers when first published over 100 years ago.
