520 1 $a"In 1674, it is three years since Henry Morgan's pirates sacked Panama. England is now at peace with Spain, and France, Holland, and Spain will briefly be at peace among themselves. But soon buccaneers and their French counterparts, the filibusters, will seize the opportunity of material gain presented by the far-flung and failing Spanish Empire. And Spain will produce its own notorious pirates, whose depredations against the English and French will become legend." "The Buccaneer's Realm focuses on the cultural and physical environments of these pirates. It describes not merely their deeds but their world - the New World of the Spanish Main and its many peoples, freedoms, dangers, and exploits that are the foundation of the Americas. A detailed and lively description of pirate life, it will especially appeal to readers with an interest in maritime, naval, military, and colonial history, as well as sociologists, anthropologists, and armchair adventurers."--BOOK JACKET.
