There are pirates, adventures and plenty of heroics from the golden age when the might of England made itself felt by land and sea, under the rule of Good Queen Bess, the mistress of English hearts and Englishmen. In particular, these are the adventures of Humphrey Salkeld - how he was kidnapped and carried away to Mexico; how he underwent torments at the hands of the Inquisitors; and how he fell in with Captain Francis Drake and escaped to England. First published in 1895, Fletcher also wrote poetry and non-fiction books, and was acclaimed for his murder mystery novels. He wrote over 100 of these, the first one being published in 1914. Illustrated by W.S. Stacey.
