Book Club Associates, 1983. Color illustrated hardcover with dust jacket of The Defeat of the Spanish Armada by Garrett Mattingly.
In putting the naval campaign of 1588 back into the context of the first great international crisis of modern history, Mattingly builds up like the movements of a symphony a broad picture of how events of the time affected men's actions, plans and hopes.
Good condition. Light spotting to the top of the page block. Solid copy with clean pages & some shelf wear.
