The Sack of Panamá
Author: Peter Earle
Publisher: Macmillan
ISBN: 1429954892
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 305
Book Description
Captain Henry Morgan's capture of the city of Panamá in 1671 is seen as one of the most audacious military operations in history. In The Sack of Panamá , Peter Earle masterfully retells this classic story, combining thorough research with an emphasis on the battles that made Morgan a pirate legend. Morgan's raid was the last in a series of brutal attacks on Spanish possessions in the Caribbean, all sanctioned by the British crown. Earle recounts the five violent years leading up to the raid, then delivers a detailed account of Morgan's march across enemy territory, as his soldiers contended with hunger, tropical diseases, and possible ambushes from locals. He brings a unique dimension to the story by devoting nearly as much space to the Spanish victims as to the Jamican privateers who were the aggressors. The book covers not only the scandalous events in the Colonial West Indies, but also the alarmed reactions of diplomats and statesmen in Madrid and London. While Morgan and his men were laying siege to Panamá , the simmering hostilities between the two nations resulted in vicious political infighting that rivaled the military battles in intensity. With a wealth of colorful characters and international intrigue, The Sack of Panamá is a painstaking history that doubles as a rip-roaring adventure tale.

Pages : 130
Book Description
For over twenty years John Vicente has sought to avenge his brother's death. Near the point of giving up, a prisoner's confession sets him once again on the path of revenge. But justice is not so easily administered, and vengeance becomes muddled when the lives of others are interwoven along the interminable and uncertain road of retribution. John Vicente soon finds himself pitched between the love of a woman well-versed in retaliation, a young man fast with a gun but too young to understand truth from deceit, and his brother's assassin grown ever more skilled in the manipulation of the inexperienced. They find themselves, every last one, in the West. A land not made for the weak. A place and time where suffering is the default of life, and where truth must be found and reckoned with through the unrelenting harshness of a world all their own.
