Download Afloat with Henry Morgan, Volume 2 AudioBook Free
Spending practically his complete seafaring career in the Caribbean, crazy tales of adventure swirl across the real-life Morgan from 1655, his first noted appearance in the region, until his loss of life in 1688. Perhaps one of the most intriguing mysteries related to this hard-living, sword-fighting sailor of the seven seas is how he had become in the Caribbean. One especially dashing story includes Morgan actually being shanghaied and sent on a vessel against his will to become an indentured servant in the Americas. When Oliver Cromwell, then your Puritan leader of England, sent an military to the island where Morgan was enslaved, Henry escaped his captors and threw in his lot with Cromwell's military in their battle from the Spanish. Regardless of how he started on his life after the ocean, Morgan definitely made a name for himself; he was a genuine terror of the oceans in the eyes of the Spanish fleets and a raucous hero to his own countrymen. Knighted in 1675, Morgan organised several federal positions on the island of Jamaica.
