He cannot place his fictional near his historical hero without either dwarfing the former until the young reader ceases to find him interesting, or robbing the latter of some of the glamour with which history invests him. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the following pages I have tried to meet the difficulty by making Francis Drake the presiding genius of the story. The deeds of Dennis Hazelrig are akin to those of Drake; the same spirit of adventure dominates them: and when, in the course of the story, the real and the fictitious personages meet, it is, I trust, without loss of dignity to either.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NOOK Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47058188009712,"sku":"9781538000168","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781538000168_p0.jpg?v=1763745058","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781538000168","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
