Plot

Sir Walter Ralegh (he pronounced it "Raw-lie") was the greatest courtier of his day, Elizabeth's favourite, dashing, brilliant, wily and powerful. This book looks at his extraordinary last months during the summer of 1618, when his last voyage was a failure and, under great suspicion from James I, he was escorted back to London and the scaffold. It tells of his grotesque behaviour and unravels the web of deceit and counter-treachery.
