Notes: | The preparations, battles, storms and voyages home of the Spanish ships that attempted to invade England — primarily from the Spanish viewpoint. Howarth's premise is that the English had little to do with the outcome. The blame rests with King Philip who sent out an unprepared fleet to do the impossible. |
