About this audiobook
Piracy and the Age of Exploration reveals how the opening of Atlantic routes transformed piracy into a weapon of empire. From Portuguese exploration and Spanish treasure fleets to French corsairs, the Atlantic slave trade, and the daring campaigns of Francis Drake, this book explores the violent struggle for control of the world's oceans. Rich in maritime adventure, political rivalry, and global history, it examines how explorers, privateers, monarchs, and pirates reshaped commerce and warfare during the Age of Exploration.
