Some Account Of Robert Mansel And Of Thomas Button is a book written by George Thomas Clark and published in 1883. The book provides a detailed account of the lives of Robert Mansel and Thomas Button, two important figures in the history of exploration and navigation. Mansel was an English naval officer who served in the 16th and 17th centuries, while Button was a Welsh explorer who led several voyages to the Arctic in the early 17th century. The book covers the early life and career of Mansel, including his service in the Spanish Armada and his involvement in the capture of Cadiz. It also discusses his later exploits as a privateer and his role in the colonization of Newfoundland. The section on Button focuses on his Arctic expeditions, including his attempts to find the Northwest Passage and his discovery of the Hudson Bay. Throughout the book, Clark provides detailed descriptions of the voyages and the challenges faced by the explorers, as well as their interactions with indigenous peoples. He also explores the political and economic factors that drove exploration and colonization during this period. Overall, Some Account Of Robert Mansel And Of Thomas Button is a fascinating historical account that sheds light on the lives and accomplishments of two important figures in the history of exploration and navigation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
