Summary

"The Last Fight of the Revenge" by Sir Walter Raleigh is a story from the 1900s that tells about a big sea battle where the English ship Revenge bravely fought against a much bigger Spanish fleet. It's a tale of honor, courage, and giving everything for your country. The story is mostly about Sir Richard Grenville, who was in charge of the Revenge. He led his crew in a tough fight near the Azores islands in 1591, where they were facing way more enemy ships and cannons than they had. Even though they were in a bad situation, Grenville and his crew fought hard for a long time, showing how brave and determined they were. The book explains how they fought, what the crew went through, and how Grenville was set on doing his duty no matter what. In the end, the book honors Grenville's bravery and the ship's importance, making it a symbol of English strength at sea, and how they never gave up, even when they lost.
