Woodes Rogers' Life Aboard a British Privateer (Tomes Maritime) by Woodes Rogers PDF Summary

Book Description: 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.
