Description

The Hidden Story of the Repulse of the Spanish Armada:

It’s 1588. How did England’s fledgling navy repulse the greatest fleet on earth? Was Queen Bess right when she claimed “He below with His winds and they were scattered?”

Or was there an alternative explanation – an apex of coincidences that conjoined in England’s favour on that fateful ‘Midnight of Eights,’ the title of author Justin Newland’s latest novel. This is the extraordinary proposition he’ll explore in this talk.
