The Story of Port Royal is a historical book written by Ethel Romanes. It tells the story of the small Jamaican town of Port Royal, which was once a thriving center of trade and commerce during the 17th century. The book chronicles the town's rise to prominence as a hub for pirates and privateers, and its eventual downfall due to natural disasters and political upheaval. Romanes provides a detailed account of the town's colorful characters, including notorious pirates such as Henry Morgan and Blackbeard, and explores the cultural and economic impact of Port Royal on the Caribbean region. The book is a fascinating look at a little-known chapter in Caribbean history and a must-read for anyone interested in piracy, colonialism, and the history of the Caribbean.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
