1837 PIRATES in America TORTUGA Capt Morgan Buccaneers Drake Cavendish Voyages

 

A highly desirable 19^th-century printing of the history of Early English Navigators published by the Edinburgh Cabinet. This work is one of the best accounts of the lives and voyages of Sir Francis Drake, Thomas Cavendish, and William Dampier.

 

This book outlines many of the English discoveries in the South Sea focusing on various battles, customs and cultures of tribes in the Philippines, the reign of Queen Elizabeth, and, most importantly, the history of buccaneers and pirates in America!

 

Pirates of the Caribbean has become an international icon through movies and pop culture, but much of the references in that movie are rooted in the content of this book: pirate settlements in Tortuga, expeditions of Captain Morgan, sea battles with Spanish pirates, and much more.
