Armada! by Robert Milne-Tyte

The defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588 was the greatest feat of English arms since the Battle of Agincourt a century and a half earlier. The poorly planned expedition with its huge galleons was ordered to join with the Spanish army in the Netherlands for an invasion of Queen Elizabeth I's Protestant England. But the Spaniards found that the English had radically changed the rules of sea warfare, with a new breed of warship employing newly-devised techniques of gunnery which thwarted the Armada as it fought its way up the Channel.

This book records in detail Spain's extensive preparations for the invasion and the counter-moves of the English; the Armada's battles,  and the fearful aftermath with barely half the Spanish fleet managing to struggle home.

The Armada Campaign 1588, The Great Enterprise Against England by Angus Konstam

The thwarted invasion of England by the Spanish Armada is studied here in fascinating detail.  Leading historian Angus Konstam sheds new light on the events of 1588 when, in a few short days, Philip II's fleet was stopped from invading England and forced into full retreat.  With the help of battle plans and bird's-eye views of the action, this book considers many of the intriguing questions surrounding the campaign, concluding with details of how the Armada's disastrous return voyage around Scotland and Ireland became one of the most tragic episodes in maritime history.

The Spanish Armada by John Tincey and Richard Hook

Over 400 years have passed since this momentous expedition ' sailed and failed', but its fascination and significance have not diminished over time. A phenomenon born of the turbulence of the high Tudor period, the story of the Armada is one of political and religious strife, on a European level: King Phillip II of Spain sent the greatest fleet the world had seen to destroy and subjugate Elizabeth I and protestant England.
