Drake's Treasure

Trans. Devon. Assoc. 44, (1912). illus. pp.512-529.

by

Colonel E T. Clifford

Prepared by Michael Steer

Devon's Sir Francis Drake was an adventurer and a true pirate of the 16th century. He is credited with being the first Englishman to circumnavigate the globe. He led several voyages, many of them aimed at capturing Spanish territories and taking their treasure. While he made enemies with Spain, he enchanted Queen Elizabeth I, who is believed to have fondly called him "my pirate". Clifford's paper, delivered at the Association's July 1912 Exeter meeting proposes that Drake's "treasure" was not the only gold. His character was the gold that "enabled him to turn to account every force, and use every fibre in those who came within the sphere of his influence"; a treasure he bequeathed to the nation.
