Title: The unfortunate traveller
Description: This is the story of Jack Wilton, an amoral young recruit in Henry VIII's army in France.  Wilton has a series of dangerous adventures and travels throughout Europe. Nashe's descriptions, especially those of violence, are a brilliant and unsettling combination of the ordinary and the extraordinary.  The Unfortunate Traveler is perhaps the most brilliant Elizabethan novella.
