I own an original edition of this book. Voyage is an excellent starting point for anyone interested in the Drake circumnavigation. The book, however, has one startling and fatal flaw. Wagner made a point of extensively including source documentation about the voyage but OMITTED ALMOST EVERY PASSAGE ABOUT THE DOUGHTY AFFAIR in the Cooke account. There is no excuse for such poor scholarship. His bias for Drake is as blatant as Zelia Nuttall's, who edited New Light on Drake. Thus, to learn what did go on between Drake and Doughty, which is arguably central to an understanding of the voyage, you have to go to the Cooper Square edition of The World Encompassed and Analogous Contemporary Documents, which contains an unexpurgated version of Cooke's relation.
