Explorers: Sir Francis Drake
Audible Audiobook
(Audible Studios March 9, 2009)
This audiobook mixes pirates, riches, and adventure with issues of slavery and the tumultuous politics of Elizabethan England to create a book that is as informative as it is colorful.
Students will love reading about the explorer who began life as the son of a poor Devon farmer and became the first person to sail around the world.
