During the blood thirsty "Buccaneering Era" English, French and Dutch pirates launched a series of piratical attacks on Spanish towns, ports and shipping in the Caribbean. Well known Buccaneers such as Captain Henry Morgan carried out their raids under the protection of the English crown, and in 1692, the French even used buccaneers to help its army capture the great city or Cartagna. This volume details the buccaneers themselves, their crews, how they were recruited and how they fought their battles, both on land and on sea.Konstam, Angus is the author of 'Buccaneers' with ISBN 9781841760353 and ISBN 1841760358.
