Description
After the Armada comes triumph in the eleventh volume of Froude's History, from 1865. Spain lies humbled at sea, and England stands exalted among the powers. Elizabeth sits at the very zenith of her glory as queen.
Froude savors the victory toward which his long narrative has built. Sea dogs raid, courtiers scheme, and the queen holds her state with cool mastery. He writes the moment when England became a great power in earnest. The volume glows with national pride, and its flowing style shows why Froude ranked as the most dramatic English historian of the Victorian age.
