Publisher Description
And so it happened that Sir Walter Raleigh, the graceful, the gracious, the generous, had spread his cloak in the pathway of Queen Elizabeth and had been taken into her especial favor.
The Queen was nineteen years older than Sir Walter; that is to say, she was in her fifties, and he was in his thirties.
But Queen Bess hated old age, and swore a halibi for the swift passing years, and always delighted in the title of the "Virgin Queen."
Sir Walter did one great thing for England, and one for Ireland. He taught the
English the use of tobacco, and he discovered the "Irish potato"—which is native to America.
