Terror of the Spanish Main: Sir Henry Morgan and His Buccaneers

241 pp. | Dutton | February, 1999 | Trade ISBN 0-525-45942-1 $$19.99
(2) 4-6 A rare combination of scholarship and storytelling, Marrin's narrative is a portrait of an individual, an analysis of a lifestyle (distinguishing between buccaneers and pirates), and a political and social history. Particularly enlightening are the descriptions of Morgan's prowess as a leader and genius as a tactician. A well-designed tour into the past with a dynamic guide, this is addictive reading. Bib., ind.
