スペインの歴史
Grimestone's histories were used for source material by several well-known seventeenth-century playwrights. "The General History of Spain" (1612) was likely the source for Philip Massinger's "Believe as You List", and "A General Inventory of the History of France" (1607) was the primary source for George Chapman's "Bussy D'Ambois", "The Revenge of Bussy D'Ambois", and "The Conspiracy and Tragedy of Charles, Duke of Byron".
