Baz Ringrose's A Journal Into the South Seas (Tomes Maritime): The Dampier Collection, Volume 12

By Basil (Baz) Ringrose

Basil - Baz to his friends - Ringrose wrote the most accurate description and widely read account of the pirate's life in the early 1690s. He took part in the dangerous voyage and bold attempts of Captains Sharp, Watling, Sawkins, Coxon, and others, performed upon the Spanish coasts of the South Sea, taken directly from the journal and writing of Basil Ringrose himself.

He spent years in the company of cut-throat, unthinking rabble and brilliant men like William Dampier and Dr. Lionel Wafer whom circumstance had brought into the fold of the buccaneer brotherhood.

Basil Ringrose was a talented navigator, reliable journal-keeper, well-read travel-adventure author, crude cartographer and inveterate pirate. He was a notable character with the soul of a sea wolf, living wild and free, helping to define the nature of life at the cross-roads of the golden ages of sail and piracy.

Be prepared for a fascinating first-hand glimpse into the pirating and sailing life of the 1600s.
