| Summary | "Great Ralegh" by Hugh De Sélincourt is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores the life and character of Sir Walter Ralegh, focusing on his significance during the Elizabethan era, a time of both greatness and decline for England. De Sélincourt aims to bring Ralegh's character to life while highlighting the vibrant and adventurous spirit of 16th-century England. The opening of the book begins with a reflection on the circumstances surrounding Ralegh's birth in 1552, setting the stage for his later adventures. De Sélincourt emphasizes the extraordinary vitality of Elizabethan life, which was marked by a sense of discovery and the immediacy of news. The author paints a vivid picture of Ralegh's formative years in Devon, fascinated by tales of adventure and exploration that would ignite his ambitions. As he delves into Ralegh's early life, education, and connections to notable figures, the narrative captures the essence of a man destined for greatness against the backdrop of a rapidly changing world.
