This book is essentially a facsimile of Thomas Cavendish’s account of his last voyage and will. Also included s a modern transcript of both documents. The trim was determined to accommodate a facsimile page and it’s facing line-for-line transcription on one spread, plus some rather copious footnotes. Also included are reproductions of Cavendish’s maps and a fold-out track chart of his last voyage.
