Description
The Mary Rose sank in 1545 under attack by the French. This new book by Peter Marsden offers a fresh perspective on the events leading up to her foundering, drawing on his extensive knowledge of the ship and its history. Marsden's account includes previously unpublished details about the battle, the design and construction of the Mary Rose, and the circumstances surrounding her sinking. He sheds new light on the French fleet's arrival, the role of the English admirals, and the events that led to the ship's demise. By examining the wreck and its remains, Marsden has been able to piece together a more accurate picture of what happened on that fateful day in July 1545. This book is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in maritime history, the Mary Rose, or the Tudor period.
