Drake, by William Mac Oubrey 52582 [Subtitle: or the Transfer of the Trident: A National Drama] [Link: http://www.gutenberg.org/5/2/5/8/52582 ] [Files: 52582-0.txt; 52582-h.htm] For those wishing to know: William Mac Oubrey (who usually wrote his name as MacOubrey) was a qualified Doctor of Medicine, Barrister and also the son-in-law of George Borrow. This self-published play, written when he was an old man, takes various scenes in the life of Sir Francis Drake and Queen Elizabeth, which William thought to be the start of England's golden era. William was a staunch Protestant from Northern Ireland, and so there's a lot of anti-catholic bits in the book, some of which would no doubt have been said in Drake's time anyway. It's a very rare play indeed, with only a handful of copies existing, and never republished until now. All the best, David, England, very warm and rather heavy, but clear skies
