I have read most ot the Lord Ramage series of books that are set in the Nelson era. This book predates them by 100 years. The book is written with the same attention to detail as the Ramage series. The following is a quick review of the book since none is offer on the page description.
Charles II returns from exile bringing with him unease to the Spanish Main. In this vivid description of seventeenth-century buccaneers, Ned Yorke, the leader and hero of the swashbuckling band, is depended upon for the defense of Jamaica, fighting with captured Spanish guns. Daring raids on the Spanish seem inevitable, as Yorke sets out on the high seas to distant adventures of behalf of the King and his own honour.
