Note 183 — Chapter II
Reading edition
For a Drake bibliography we must go to Sabin’s Dictionary, v. 20,827, etc., and Bohn’s Lowndes. Stevens (Historical Collections, vol. i. no. 202) notes a collection of copies from manuscripts in public depositaries in England which had been brought together as materials for writing a memoir of Drake. As a Devonshire hero, Drake figures in the local literature of Plymouth and its neighborhood.
