Description

Westward Ho Charles Kingsley

Undoubtedly one of the most popular novels of Charles Kingsley (1819-1875). Set in the Elizabethan age of the seadogs – Drake and the Golden Hind – what could give the author better scope to show the dangers of the Roman Church than a period in history when Rome, personified by Spain, was England’s enemy? To hate her was therefore patriotism itself and this, allied to a plot in which the hero is fortunate enough to sail the seas under Sir Francis Drake, supplied all the necessary ingredients guaranteed to warm the coldest heart. An action-packed saga of romance and seafaring adventure set against the dramatic backdrop of Elizabethan England, the battle of the Spanish Armada, and the exploration of North America.
