This text is based on real events and documents of the 18th century - the biography of Captain Howell Davis, the memoirs of an English merchant who spent two weeks in captivity with pirates. “I did not invent. I reconstructed. I was interested not in the plot - but in the experience. How they lived, what they ate, how they treated prisoners, why they had such customs.”
This is non-fiction masquerading as an adventure novel.
