A distinguished group of specialists examine afresh issues of
particular concern to historians of the Spanish Armada. In
particular they look at the contemporary Spanish view of Philip
II's imperialism (Watson); at the composition and equipping of the
fleet (Martin, Thompson, O'Donnell); at the unpredictable influence
of outside agents, notably the Dutch fleet and the appalling
weather of 1588 and its consequences (Schokkenbroek, Daultrey,
Hogueras and San Pio); and at the reflection of the Armada in the
myths and literature of the time (Fernandez-Armesto, Calvar, the
editors). The editors also translate and annotate de Cuellar's
remarkable first-hand account of sailing with the Armada.
