Raleigh was knighted by the Queen at the Feast of the Epiphany in 1585. The book includes Raleigh's trial at Winchester in 1603, after the death of Queen Elizabeth, when King James I succeeded to the throne of England. Raleigh was arrested together with Lawrence Kemys and they were committed to the Bloody Tower on the 14th July, 1603, having been implicated in the Spanish Bye and Main Plot, which was a plot by 16 men to kidnap King James I in an effort to persuade him to tolerate the Roman Catholic religion. The story of The King's Quinto is told through the voice of John Talbot, Raleigh's real-life servant. In this book you will find out what money the Elizabethans spent, what they wore, ate, and how they cleaned their teeth and also what preparations the Elizabethan women used as make-up.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sir Walter Raleigh streaked across the Elizabethan heavens like a bright, shining star. Often regarded as a true Renaissance man—that is, a man gifted with many talents and abilities—he lived life to the fullest. Born to adventure, Raleigh parlayed a sharp mind and a yen for prestige and power into enough living for a dozen lesser men. As soldier, swashbuckler, writer, historian, poet, explorer, businessman, and more, he rose in favor at the court of Elizabeth I—England's Good Queen Bess—and made history as he wrote it. Raleigh fought courageously for England in France, Ireland, and elsewhere at sea. He founded the first American colony at Roanoke Island in the New World, introduced tobacco and the potato to Ireland, and searched for the golden city of El Dorado in South America. At the peak of his fame—some say infamy—he knelt down as a commoner and arose as a knight.

James and Moll, upon their release from Newgate Prison, pledge to set out to make their fortune, and they make a formidable pair as they set out to rob, fleece, deceive, and otherwise deprive the rich Chiswick folk of their worldly goods, in the most effective manner, using every trick in the book, sometimes in the most comical manner, but where they ever caught?
