Hi Jim

Good review, thanks for sharing it with us.
I have to ask (sorry) but any mention to Portuguese ships in the book?
;)

No Rui, no mention of the Portuguese in this one, just France and Spain. I guess the Portuguese were too busy exploring the world to bother with the English. It would be nice to have a similar book on Portuguese ships from the same time frame.
