Description
Dr. Peter Blood's quiet life in Somerset, England, was shattered when he tended to wounded rebels during the Monmouth Rebellion. His actions were misinterpreted as treasonous, and despite his innocence, he was arrested and sentenced to death.
King James II commuted his sentence, but instead of freedom, Dr. Blood was sold into slavery in the Caribbean. He soon found himself at the mercy of a cruel colonel, but Dr. Blood's bravery and decency ultimately led him to escape and reclaim his life at sea.
This gripping tale of piracy and adventure follows Dr. Blood as he becomes one of the most successful pirates in the Caribbean, triumphing over his enemies and misfortune along the way. Printed on premium acid-free paper, this edition remains a compelling read for those who enjoy stories of high-sea exploits and swashbuckling adventures.
