Imprescindible crónica, prácticamente de primera mano, de la piratería caribeña en el siglo XVII
Excellent read. At times I was there in the Spanish Caribbean with them, fighting the English.
A true and firsthand account from one of the pirates that served under Captain Morgan, and he was a surgeon on his crew. This was an account that showed the many different aspects of piracy and privateers. Exquemelin explains the democracy between the pirates, and the brutal conditions that they end
Interesting and rare contemporary source for Buccaneers and early Caribbean piracy.
Hinsichtlich der Geschichte der Piraterie sehr interessant. Es werden einige berühmte Namen genannt wie Captain Henry Morgan (ich frage mich warum nach einer derart brutalen, menschenverachtenden Person eine Rumsorte bzw. überhaupt etwas benannt wurde).

3.0 - In the original English translation of 1694, The Buccaneers of America tells the tales of plunder and cruelty of the Pirates.

This is a great read. It was supposedly written by another pirate. It mainly focuses on Sir Henry Morgan. Nice to read this story sounding as from somebody who was there or who talked to the pirates that were there. An astonishing tale.
A biographical work of pirates, especially Captain Henry Morgan, written by a pirate himself who witnessed and participated in their crimes. It gives accounts of the brutality and disregard for human life that they perpetrated on both the Spanish ships and common innocent people in their port towns.
Loved this book supposedly written by a pirate about the life of other, contemporary, pirates. A little over the top, possibly fiction, but very entertaining to anyone who is interested in Caribbean history or pirates.
