This book was released on 2018-10-22 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WOODES ROGERS commanded a privateering expedition with Royal permission to engage the French and Spanish and take what booty he could. The expedition took two ships - the Dutch and the Dutchess - clear around the world and met with great success. The journey was navigated by William Dampier, who was and given the honorable title of "Pilot of the South-Seas." The voyage had many remarkable events, including the unlikely rescue of the marooned Alexander Selkirk, who's life would form the model for the famous novel Robinson Crusoe. On December 22, 1709, the expedition took the Nostra Seniora de la Incarnacion Disenganio, the first of the year's Manila Galleons bound for Acapulco. Rogers was a master mariner, a wildly successful privateer and scrupulously kept a journal of his remarkable circumnavigation of the globe, which was published upon his return to England as Cruising Voyage Round the World.

Book Funnell s a Voyage Round the World  Tomes Maritime

Download or read book Funnell s a Voyage Round the World Tomes Maritime written by William Funnell and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-10-21 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Funnell wrote a fantastic account of William Dampier's privateering excursion into the South Seas in the ship St George, in the years 1703 And 1704. Funnell was a mutinous sea-dog who, along with his fellow band of fools, ensured the failure of Dampier's privateering expedition and marooned Dampier and loyal crew members in the South Sea. The mutineers alerted the Spaniards to Dampier's marooning by releasing the Spanish prisoners. Fully expecting Dampier to die in the South Seas, Funnell returned and prepared a manuscript in which he aggrandizes himself and denigrates Dampier. This slanderous book prompted Dampier to publish his now infamous "vindication" in which Dampier heatedly points out Funnell's propensity for humbug. Dampier's Vindication is provided as a prologue in order to provide context from a more reliable narrator. Search Amazon for "tomes maritime dampier" and discover: THE DAMPIER COLLECTION Vol. 1.

This book was released on 2018-10-10 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE PIRATE-SCIENTIST WILLIAM DAMPIER (1651-1715) lived at a remarkable time in human history: at the dawn of modern science and at the intersection of three golden ages: the golden ages of sail, exploration, and piracy. Curious to see the world and keen to add to the world's sum total of useful knowledge, he ventured out upon the high seas. He kept a careful account of his adventures in the world's Torrid Zone, describing as he went the soil, rivers, harbors, tides, currents, winds, plants, fruits and animals of the lands he visited, together with the inhabitants, their customs, religion, government and trade. Dampier was a poor pirate, but precisely because he was a pirate he was able to travel the world and discover true and lasting treasure: hard and useful foundational knowledge in the realms of science, natural history, economics and political economy, hydrography, botany, zoology, ethnography, anthropology, navigation, geography, map-making, literature, and language.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Complete Works of William Dampier: Containing Particular Descriptions of Life in the Torrid Zone at the Dawn of Modern Science and at the Intersection of the Golden Age of Sail, the Golden Age of Exploration, and the Golden Age of Piracy THE PIRATE-SCIENTIST WILLIAM DAMPIER (1651-1715) lived at a remarkable time in human history: at the dawn of modern science and at the intersection of three golden ages: the golden ages of sail, exploration, and piracy. Curious to see the world and keen to add to the world's sum total of useful knowledge, he ventured out upon the high seas. He kept a careful account of his adventures in the world's Torrid Zone, describing as he went the soil, rivers, harbours, tides, currents, winds, plants, fruits and animals of the lands he visited, together with the inhabitants, their customs, religion, government and trade. WILLIAM DAMPIER sailed the great southern Pacific ocean four times, was the third Englishman to circumnavigate the globe, was the first person to circumnavigate the globe three times, was the first person to visit six continents, captained England's first scientific expedition, and touched Australian shores nearly 100 years before Captain James Cook. His writing immediately made him famous throughout Europe and impacted England's great poets and writers: Lord Byron, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Daniel Defoe, and Jonathan Swift. His scientific efforts influenced the work of Charles Darwin, Alexander von Humboldt, Edmund Halley, and Matthew Flinders. His writing inspired the English to challenge the Spanish and Dutch dominance in the South Seas. He wrote of free trade a century before Adam Smith. He introduced important new words to the English language, words like: banana, barbeque, castaway, sea-breeze, and subspecies. He was once left for dead by a crew of vicious mutineers, but survived against all odds. Dampier was a poor pirate, but precisely because he was a pirate he was able to travel the world and discover true and lasting treasure: hard and useful foundational knowledge in the realms of science, natural history, economics and political economy, hydrography, botany, zoology, ethnography, anthropology, navigation, geography, map-making, literature, and language.

This book was released on 2018-10-15 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 300+ years ago, motivated by a "sacred hunger for gold," an ordinary sailor accompanied Captain Sharp and several hundred other cut-throats on a piratical maritime pilgrimage in the South Seas of the Spanish Main. This humble sailor kept a journal of his voyage, which contains the plain sailing details a sailor might record in his journal, but it also contains a record of the violent assaults and murderous rampage he and his fellow sea-dogs brought upon the Spanish America's West coast. Accounts of this piratical expedition were written by William Dampier, Basil Ringrose, Dick Williams and Captain Sharp - of all these accounts, this plain sailor's journal might be considered the most basic and unvarnished of them all.

Book The Pirate who Stole Scotland

Download or read book The Pirate who Stole Scotland written by Leon Hopkins and published by Pen and Sword History. This book was released on 2023-01-24 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic warfare is not a new phenomenon. In the protectionist climate of the seventeenth century, trade embargoes, exclusions and boycotts were common. England was among the most active nations when it came to using economic clout to get its own way. It did so to force Scotland to accept an Act of Union: to submerge its independence within a United Kingdom governed from London. Instrumental in this attack upon the Scots was William Dampier, the principal subject of this book. He was an extraordinary man. A farmer’s son, he became the most traveled man of his generation. He was a pirate, a brute and a devious sociopath. But he was also a scientist and a talented writer who gave his readers accurate descriptions of previously unknown places, peoples, plants and animals. He was a daring explorer and an expert navigator who mapped coastlines and logged wind patterns and ocean currents. He led the first Royal Navy expedition to Australia, over 70 years before Captain Cook’s arrival. Dampier’s writing made him famous, but not rich. It allowed him to rub shoulders with the leading men of his day; scientists such as Robert Hooke, Edmund Halley and Hans Sloane, businessmen such as Sir John Houblon (first governor of the Bank of England) and William Paterson, politicians such as James Vernon and Charles Montagu (first Earl of Halifax), and Admiralty men such as Admiral Sir George Rooke and Samuel Pepys. And Dampier was in the pay of the English Government; an agent known to Queen Anne, in which capacity he engineered a financial disaster and political drubbing for Scotland.

The British Admiralty made him Captain of England's first official voyage of discovery. In a barely sea-worthy ship, Dampier sailed to the shores of New Holland. It was the second time he'd touch the shores of Australia. In the going out and returning, Dampier made numerous discoveries amongst the remotest of the East India Islands, the distant shores of New-Holland, and New-Guinea.

Book excerpt: Cowley's Voyage Round the Globe IN PRINT FOR THE FIRST TIME A complete account of Cowley's adventures RECONSTRUCTED from different original source versions (all produced by Cowley himself)l. William Ambrosia Cowley accidentally sailed into the history books in August 1683 when he boarded the Defense thinking he would navigate the ship on a trading expedition to Haiti. In reality, he had been tricked into joining a pirating expedition that would take him from England to Virginia to Africa, around Cape Horn, up and down the western coast of the Americas, and across the Pacific Ocean into the East Indies (Guam, Philippines, China, Java), around the Cape of Good Hope and back to England. In three and a half years he circumnavigated the globe, making Cowley just the third Englishman to accomplish that feat, and the first in a hundred years. This reluctant pirate sailed with the likes of William Dampier, Basil "Baz" Ringrose, Captain Eaton, Captain Swan and Captain Edward Cook. He was one of the first Englishman to draw up a map of the Galapagos Islands, giving English names to many of the islands, and naming one after himself. In the Galapagos today, the tiny Cowley's Enchanted Island is still known as Isla Cowley. Inside you'll find Cowley's own astounding account of his years among the most notorious pirates of his age. Be prepared for a fascinating, sometimes shocking, first-hand glimpse into the pirating and sailing life of the seventeenth-century.

Book A Voyage to New Holland  Tomes Maritime

Download or read book A Voyage to New Holland Tomes Maritime written by William Dampier and published by . This book was released on 2018-10-10 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The British Admiralty made William Dampier Captain of England's first official voyage of discovery. In a barely sea-worthy ship, Dampier sailed to the shores of New Holland. It was the second time he'd touch the shores of Australia. In the going out and returning, Dampier made numerous discoveries amongst the remotest of the East India Islands, the distant shores of New-Holland, and New-Guinea. Includes: maps and illustrations particular the voyage.Dampier shared these discoveries with an eager audience in these two volumes. The first of these two New Holland volumes was published in 1703 and the second six years later-after Dampier had returned from his third circumnavigation round the world. The voyage to New Holland saw Dampier complete his second circumnavigation of the world, a remark-able feat considering the ship he'd been assigned threatened to rot away under the crew's feet and, indeed, did sink while at anchor.
