I liked this book very much. I learned alot about the Spanish Inquistion, how slaves were brutally treated, how a father could make his own son turn against him, and the Spanish way of life. Linda Chaikin's TRADE WINDS are similar to her THE BUCCANEERS series, they are not exactly the same. I'm going to read this book again and again because I believed that Mrs.Chaikin did an excellent job on the research and plot in this book.
