Thunder Go North
The Hunt for Sir Francis Drake's Fair and Good Bay
Melissa Darby
Explore the mysteries surrounding Francis Drake's famous voyage and summer sojourn in a new book. From his perilous journey to the discovery of a "Fair and Good Bay," the author dives into the comparisons between Drake's observations and early anthropological findings to present evidence that Drake actually landed on the Oregon coast, not California. With an engaging narrative, uncover the details of a 20th-century hoax that succeeded in silencing contrary evidence and calls for history to be rewritten.

Anthropologist Melissa Darby’s book “Thunder Go North” is a must for anyone into Sir Francis Drake (and who has doubts about the traditional narrative of where he landed on the North American West Coast). Did he land in Oregon? – source
