"The introduction is so beautiful a piece of writing, apart from its excellence as an introduction to an English classic, that we feel very grateful to Professor Raleigh for making it more readily accessible to the large audience interested in our sea adventures. It is the most delightful and lucid exposition of the history of English exploration which has yet come before us." -MANCHESTER GUARDIAN. Professor Raleigh has here given us an extremely interesting book. . . . The subject is one we hope he will return to." -THE ACADEMY. "Admirably has the author treated of the influences of the Elizabethan voyages on literature.... This well-inspired essay, with its vivid appeal to the imagination, should not lack readers." -WESTMINSTER GAZETTE. "The book is, indeed, capital reading, and may be cordially commended to the attention of those who are inclined to think a university professor is necessarily a 'Dryasdust.' Professor Raleigh takes a large view of his subject, and writes about it with a fine and stirring enthusiasm." -DAILY TELEGRAPH.
