Book excerpt: This work presents the history of Sir Henry Morgan, the Welsh buccaneer who was one of the most famous adventurers and looted Spain's Caribbean colonies during the late 17th century. Working with the unofficial support of the English government, he sabotaged Spanish authority in the West Indies. It's believed that he was a member of the expedition that captured Jamaica from the Spanish in 1655 and converted it into an English colony.
