Privateers and Pirates
The Caribbean and the Atlantic from 1660 to 1730, drawn as they stood in 1716: Nassau and Port Royal, the other ports and sea lanes, the crews, the navies and the law that hunted them. The book gives the history, the places, the ships, the roles and rules for crews, sail combat and the prize loop, and a starter adventure.
