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.

This book was released on 2018-10-14 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Dampier and Lionel Wafer despised Captain Bartholomew Sharp as a coward and entirely unfit for command. Basil (Baz) Ringrose thought Sharp a bold commander of excellent conduct. He was twice voted out of his Captaincy and only regained it when his replacements were killed. He thwarted a crew's plan to murder him by having them drink the ship's store of wine before executing their plans to murder him on Christmas day, 1680, denying them the alcohol they needed to get their courage up. He pillaged and plundered Spanish towns and ships up and down the Western coast of the Americas. Problem was, England and Spain were at peace. The Spaniards pressed King Charles II to prosecute Sharp for piracy. Instead, Sharp presented King Charles II with a rare book of Spanish maps, outlining unknown lands for the English. Instead of dangling at the end of a rope Sharp received a royal pardon. No matter how bold Sharp was, he never made his fortune raiding the Spanish. He was destined to die in a Dutch debtors prison on St. Thomas Island in the Caribbean. Sharp took over two dozen prize ships in his life, but failed to secure any significant booty. He was bold, daring and unlucky. It may not have been a charmed life, but Sharp did indeed live a life well-worth the reading - for entertainment and historical insight into the golden age of piracy.

Download or read book William Dick s South Sea Voyage from Jamaica Unto the Province of Darien and South Seas Tomes Maritime written by William Dick and published by . This book was released on 2018-10-14 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Dick sailed from Jamaica with Captain Sharp, made his way across the Isthmus of Darien and engaged in robberies and assaults on Spanish towns and villages up and down the West coast of the Americas. Dick sailed on these voyages with such famous fellows as William Dampier, Basil Ringrose, Lionel Wafer, and Captain Bartholomew Sharp. When Dick returned to London, he was tried for piracy, murder and mayhem on the high seas. He was acquitted. An account of his piratical adventures was published in the second edition of Bucaniers of America in May 1684. Due to the candid nature of Dick's account, it was credited to 'WD'. Did Dick only used his initials in order to remain anonymous avoid a second trail for piracy? Probably, because this account is nothing less than a confession to robbery, assault and murder.

This book was released on 2018-10-14 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Basil - Baz to his friends - Ringrose wrote the most accurate description and widely read account of the pirate's life in the early 1690s. He took part in the dangerous voyage and bold attempts of Captains Sharp, Watling, Sawkins, Coxon, and others, performed upon the Spanish coasts of the South Sea, taken directly from the journal and writing of Basil Ringrose himself. He spent years in the company of cut-throat, unthinking rabble and brilliant men like William Dampier and Dr. Lionel Wafer whom circumstance had brought into the fold of the buccaneer brotherhood. Basil Ringrose was a talented navigator, reliable journal-keeper, well-read travel-adventure author, crude cartographer and inveterate pirate. He was a notable character with the soul of a sea wolf, living wild and free, helping to define the nature of life at the cross-roads of the golden ages of sail and piracy. Be prepared for a fascinating first-hand glimpse into the pirating and sailing life of the 1600s. Search Amazon for "tomes maritime dampier" and discover: THE DAMPIER COLLECTION Vol. 1.

This book was released on 2013-10 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctor Wafer's Amazing Story LIONEL WAFER was a pirate-surgeon, prowling the West Indies and South Seas with the likes of William Dampier, Basil Ringrose, William Ambrosia Cowley, Captain Bartholomew Sharp and Captain Edward Cook. He chose the life of a buccaneer in 1679 when he abandoned his medical practice in Port Royal to join a pirate crew intent on sacking Panama City. This fateful decision would lead to a decade of dangerous undertakings. IN 1681, while crossing from the Pacific to Atlantic side of the Isthmus of Darien, Dr. Wafer had his knee burned to the bone in a tragic gunpowder-drying incident. Left by his companions, he rested and recovered in the company of the so-called wild Cuna Indians. He spent four months among them, learning their language and customs, and culminating in his famous description of the Cuna and their country. Written from memory, this volume contains Wafer's own account of his voyage and adventures and provides a unique first-hand glimpse into the pirating and sailing life of the seventeenth-century and into the lives of the Cuna (Moskito) Indians, who lived upon the Isthmus of Darien. This is a must read work for anyone interested in: Pirates, the Indians of Central America, Panama, Description and travel, and natural history. THE DAMPIER COLLECTION Vol. 1.

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.

This book was released on 2018-10-29 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WOODES ROGERS commanded the most successful privateering expedition of the early eighteenth century. With his men and ships he sacked the rich town of Guiaquil and took one of the fabulously wealthy Manila Galleons: Nostra Seniora del Incarnation Desengano. During one of the many vicious confrontations with the Spanish, Rogers took a bullet in face, causing the top half of his jaw to fall to the deck, but this didn't hinder him from remaining in command and writing out his further orders on paper. He used many unique strategies to maintain order over his small fleet (the Duke, the Dutchess, the Marquiss, and the Batchelor) manned by wretched, disorderly sailors. This version of his journal was edited by Robert C. Leslie, giving the book a fast pace and adventurous flavor. INCLUDES: 50+ pages of maps and classic privateering images.
