Negative Positive
Title: Some weak logic on the author's part
Review: Ayres writes about the 1930's discovery of a plaque in California of seemingly probable origin that it was made by Sir Francis Drake in the 1500's. Fine but Ayers goes on to say that Great Britain could claim California as theirs on the grounds of this discovery? Hello? It would take an awful lot more than even an authentic buried plaque by one royal-paid buccaneer-type in the 16th century for GB to be able claim California as theirs back in the 1930's or even now.
