Sir Thomas Cavendishwas an English explorer and a privateer known as “The Navigator” because he was the first who deliberately tried to emulate Sir Francis Drake and raid the Spanish towns and ships in the Pacific and return by circumnavigating the globe. Magellan’s-Elcano, Loaisa, Drake’s, and Loyola’s expeditions had preceded Cavendish in circumnavigating the globe.
