England's capital on the Thames, a city of merchants and mariners that grew into the center of the world's greatest maritime trading network.
London is England's engine — the city that converts the island's wool, coal, and naval ambition into global power. Under Elizabeth, it is transforming from a medieval city into the hub of a global trading empire. Ships leave from the Pool of London bound for every coast on earth, and they return with goods, intelligence, and the raw material of colonial power. Elizabeth's court at Whitehall is the most sophisticated in the Protestant world, full of poets, spies, and adventurers who blur those categories cheerfully.
A city of grey stone and timber along a wide, brown river — the Thames always busy with boats. The Tower of London is visible from most of the city, its stone dark with age. The streets are narrow and crowded and smell of fish, coal smoke, and the particular damp of an island city.
