59. THE EXPEDITION OF THE ENGLISH KNIGHT SIR FRANCIS DRAKE TO THE WEST INDIES IN THE He supplies no more information about Bigges or his account, At length weput into Portsmouth on Jul 20th, 1586, all of us hale and hearty. http://www.tudorplace.com.ar/Documents/Expedition_Drake_1585.htm

Under Elizabeth , to a large extent the success of a transatlantic expedition was evaluated by the amount of booty procured: it was expected not only to pay for itself but also to turn a profit for its participants and backers, a kind of joint-stock company. Measured by this yardstick, Sir Francis Drake 's 1585-86 West Indies expedition was a dismal failure. He learned that holding a city for ransom was an unprofitable substitute for capturing treasure ships, for the colonial citizenry simply did not have very much money to offer. Measured by the calculus employed in modern warfare, however, it was considerably more successful. Besides the considerable damage inflicted on Spanish prestige and morale, and the corresponding boost for the English, the descent of an entire enemy fleet and army produced a loud chorus of yelps from frightened colonial governors and municipalities, and all the manpower, material and pesos Felipe was obliged to invest in providing adequate defense for his American holdings had to be subtracted from his resources for current fighting in the Netherlands and a projected invasion of England. The fullest account to emanate from the English side, which served as the basis for subsequent accounts (such as those of Hakylut and Camden), is well known to historians. This was printed at London by Richard Field in 1589 under the title

"Marvellous countries and lands" Notable Maps of Florida, 1507-1846 Ralph E. Ehrenberg First Images Spanish Florida French Florida English Carolina-Spanish Florida Borderland Disputes ... East and West Florida On October 31, 1998 Senator John Glen and the crew of Space Shuttle 'Discovery' photographed the peninsula of Florida from a point high above Cuba. 'Discovery's' dramatic space-age map-like photograph, "Florida from Space," vividly captures the beauty and potential of the Florida peninsula that inspired generations of explorers and mapmakers.1 While such a view is familiar to most persons throughout the world today, the map of Florida was not always so easily defined or known. Historically, it has varied significantly in size and shape. Emerging in sixteenth-century European consciousness as an unidentified landmass on maps of the Western Atlantic, the map of Florida eventually encompassed the southern quarter of the North American continent, extending from the Atlantic Coast to the border of Mexico before receding to its current configuration.
