Walter Raleigh in popular culture

Sir Walter Raleigh (c. 1554 – 29 October 1618) was an English gentleman, writer, poet, soldier, courtier, spy, and explorer, well known for popularising tobacco in England.

Raleigh allegedly laid his cloak over a puddle so Queen Elizabeth I would not get her feet wet.
