Henry Morgan: Knight and Knave is a biography of the infamous Welsh privateer who became one of the most successful pirates of the Caribbean in the late 17th century. Written by Sue Core, the book chronicles Morgan's life from his humble beginnings in Wales to his rise to power as a pirate and eventual appointment as Governor of Jamaica. Core delves into Morgan's early years as a sailor, his involvement in the raid on Panama City, and his later exploits as a privateer, including his daring raids on Spanish ships and settlements. The book also explores Morgan's complex personality, his relationships with other pirates, and his controversial reputation as both a hero and a villain. Throughout the book, Core uses primary sources and historical documents to provide a detailed and accurate portrayal of Morgan's life and times, including the political and economic factors that contributed to the rise of piracy in the Caribbean. Henry Morgan: Knight and Knave is a fascinating and engaging read that offers a unique perspective on one of the most fascinating figures in pirate history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
