Best remembered as the commander of the first fleet of the East India Company (1601-3), Lancaster had a fascinating and varied career, touching many aspects of Elizabethan life, in the country in north Hampshire, in London and overseas. Using new material based on archive research and re-working of the published sources, Franks argues the case for recognising Lancaster as one of the earliest 'global traders'. With a foreword by Andrew Lambert, Laughton Professorof Naval History, King?s College London.* This is a FINE copy of the 1st./1st. thus with absolutely minimal shelf wear.* 2006-11-27.
