Note XXIII‑4 — Chapter XXIII · DRAKE AND OXENHAM'S EXPEDITIONS. 1572-1596.
Reading edition
This visit to the Isla de Pinos is not mentioned in Clark's Life of Drake, but is described circumstantially in Burton's English Heroe, 26. In the latter work it is stated that the supplies captured were sufficient to victual a force of 3,000 men, and it is not improbable that this was the case, for the galleons were now off the coast and the Isla de Pinos was the usual storing place for provisions.
