Description
This work provides an account of the buccanneer, scientist and explorer William Dampier. Setting sail from England in 1679 and returning 12 years later, having accidentally circumnavigated the globe on a series of pirate ships. Filled with descriptions of Dampier's escapades with the buccaneers of strange customs, and exotic flora and fauna, this revised and reprinted edition features an appendix of Dampier's natural history observations.
