review |
One of my
favorite historical characters was Sir Francis Drake. David Wesley Hill, in his
book At Drake’s Command, has captured the spirit of adventure to sail under
Drake’s command at sea. This is an excellent historical fiction with plenty of
action and adventure.
The
storyline is based loosely on the actual records of Drake’s voyages and this
adds to the realism of the story. The
story is well defined and easy to follow. The various twist and turns in story
make the adventure more exciting. I found it very easy to put myself in the
story as an unseen extra.
Our hero in
the story is fictitious but it makes it easier to identify with him. David
Wesley Hill did an excellent job of character development with each character.
They each seemed real and it was easy to follow and identify with them. Their
emotions and moral character came through.
I really
enjoyed At Drake’s Command by David Wesley Hill. I highly recommend this book
to all readers.

was given a free copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.]
