Book Description
Henry Oakum is in a pub one night when he overhears a local myth about the loss of a German World War II submarine filled with loot pillaged by none other than Herman Göering, head of the Luftwaffe and one of Adolf Hitler’s most trusted advisors. Göering had ordered the submarine to transport his booty to South America, where he planned to abscond after the war, but the submarine was lost at sea, and Göering committed suicide the night before he was to be executed. Henry makes it his mission to find and retrieve this priceless treasure in the hope of becoming independently wealthy. Inspired by real events, this novel tells the story of Henry’s search and the career that follows. It’s a must read for anyone who loves adventure, epic tales of man against nature, and those who have ever dreamed of going on the ultimate treasure hunt.

Elizabethan Naval Administration
Author: C.S. Knighton
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 131714502X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 828
Book Description
This is the first general selection from the substantial body of surviving documents about Elizabeth’s navy. It is a companion to The Navy of Edward VI and Mary I (Vol.157 in the NRS Series), where the apparatus serving both volumes was printed, and it complements the other NRS volumes that deal specifically with the Spanish Armada. This collection concentrates (though not exclusively so) on the early years of Elizabeth’s reign when there was no formal war. From 1558-1585 the navy was involved in a number of small-scale campaigns, pursuit of pirates and occasional shows of force. The documents selected emphasize the financial and administrative processes that supported these operations, such as mustering, victualing, demobilisation, and ship maintenance and repair. The fleet varied in size from about 30 to 45 ships during the period and a vast amount of maintenance and repair was required. The main component of the volume is the massively detailed Navy Treasurer's account for 1562-3 which is followed by and collated with the corresponding Exchequer Account. The documents illustrate just how efficiently the dockyards functioned. They were one of the great early Elizabethan achievements.
