Drake's Bay: Unraveling California's great maritime mystery
About This The history of the English in America begins, not on the Atlantic but in 1579 when Francis Drake, commanded by Queen Elizabeth to circle the globe and disrupt the Spanish, landed at a bay somewhere on the Pacific coast. This site has long been assumed to have been just north of San Francisco. Author Brian Kelleher disputes this and has found the true landing site.
