Publisher's Synopsis
This book offers a compilation of all the men who served England, and the missions they undertook during the English Renaissance and the subsequent Stuart era. The book should also be an important contribution to biographical information about the various Tudor/Stuart figures who undertook diplomatic assignments (as so many prominent men did).;The book, after some brief interpretive material, gives the missions served, arranged under geographical headings. Information about precise dates, pay received, instructions carried, and any anomalous or elaborative data is also included. Finally, there are references to where diplomatic correspondence can be found for each mission, a useful piece of information that can provide an entry into the original manuscripts that constitute a source of detailed documentation in the area of Tudor/Stuart studies.
