Description
The Pirates of Panama: Or The Buccaneers of America is a historical book written by John Esquemeling in 1914. The book is a detailed account of the lives and adventures of the infamous pirates who operated in the Caribbean and the coast of Central and South America during the 17th century. The book begins with a brief history of the Spanish conquest of the Americas and the subsequent rise of piracy in the region. It then delves into the lives of some of the most notorious pirates of the time, including Henry Morgan, Edward Teach (Blackbeard), and William Kidd. Esquemeling's account is based on his personal experiences as a pirate, having served as a surgeon and barber-surgeon on several pirate ships. He provides vivid descriptions of the pirates' raids and battles, their tactics, and their way of life on board the ships. The book also includes details about the pirates' relationships with the indigenous people of the region, their dealings with colonial powers, and their eventual downfall. Overall, The Pirates of Panama: Or The Buccaneers of America is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the history of piracy or the Caribbean and Central and South America during the 17th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
