Sir Walter Ralegh's life is romantic, irresistible and of central importance to our island story.

His death is a convoluted and contested tale of bargaining, failure and betrayal.

Through the Elizabethan golden age and Ralegh's famous adventures to the final act, Anna Beer presents his stranger-than-fiction life in all its richness.

How could a man once the Queen's favourite find himself consigned to the Tower by her successor? Should his legacy be fame or infamy? Who was the real Sir Walter Ralegh?
