About This Book
Set in the mid-seventeenth-century Caribbean, the narrative dramatizes a colonial uprising in which settlers declare defiance against the mother country and engage in pitched naval and militia battles. It charts the rise of plantation slavery through the first major English slave auction in the region and depicts an early slave revolt and the brutal enforcement of racial hierarchy. Parallel threads trace the emergence of buccaneers from displaced hunters and the personal lives of men and women drawn to the islands for fortune and dignity. The work blends documented events with compressed fictionalized sequences to examine how greed, violence, and racialized labor shaped the region's social order.
