Hi --
New to the thread, and the Cafe. Pardon any breach of protocol in jumping in.

I bought a CD of folks songs popular at the time of the Revolutionary War recently, and the narrative on the CD said that Sir Walter was not will liked ("hated") by his crew, and they nearly mutinied more than once. It goes on to say that the actions of this Captain, perportedly him, were consistent with what Raleigh would have done.
