Notes:
On 1 June 1666 a large but outnumbered English fleet engaged the Dutch off the mouth of the Thames in a colossal battle that was to involve nearly 200 ships and last four days. False intelligence contributed to the English defeat and, like many a defeat, it sparked controversy at the time and has been the subject of speculation and debate ever since.
