This exemplary volume will be essential for students of Tudor geography, oceanic enterprise and naval expansion, historians of the book, and the inner workings of the late Tudor state. It marks a critical stage in re-integrating Hakluyt in the wider context. A pleasure to read, an unfailing resource, and a triumph.
