| Summary | "With Drake on the Spanish Main" by Herbert Strang is a historical adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The book is set during the age of exploration, following the young protagonist Dennis Hazelrig as he finds himself castaway on a tropical island after a shipwreck. The narrative explores Dennis's struggles for survival as he grapples with solitude, encounters wild animals, and contemplates the dangers posed by potential human adversaries, particularly the Spanish. The opening portion of the story introduces Dennis as he awakens on an unfamiliar beach following a fierce storm that wrecked the ship, the "Maid Marian", and separated him from his comrades. Disoriented but determined, he searches for food and water, reflecting on the calamity that has befallen him and his companions. As he begins to regain his strength, he sets off to explore the island, filled with both hope of finding survivors and fear of encountering hostile inhabitants. The reader is drawn into Dennis's inner turmoil and his adaptation to the challenges of isolation and survival, setting the stage for his further adventures and the potential discovery of Spanish presence on the island.
