Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Sir Henry Morgan, Buccaneer: A Romance of the Spanish Main In literature there have been romantic pirates, gentlemanly pirates, kind-hearted pirates, even humorous pirates - in fact, all sorts and conditions of pirates. In life there was only one kind. In this book that kind appears. Several presentations - in the guise of novels - of pirates, the like of which never existed on land or sea, have recently appeared. A perusal of these interesting romances awoke in me a desire to write a story of a real pirate, a pirate of the genuine species. Much research for historical essays, amid ancient records and moldy chronicles, put me in possession of a vast amount of information concerning the doings of the greatest of all pirates; a man unique among his nefarious brethren, in that he played the piratical game so successfully that he received the honor of knighthood from King Charles II. A belted knight of England, who was also a brutal, rapacious, lustful, murderous villain and robber - and undoubtedly a pirate, although he disguised his piracy under the name of buccaneering - is certainly a striking and unusual figure.
