About this audiobook
The War of the Spanish Succession and the Making of the Golden Age reveals how a European dynastic conflict reshaped the oceans and helped unleash piracy's most notorious era. From privateers hunting enemy commerce to the wreck of the Spanish treasure fleet, the rise of Nassau, and the emergence of captains such as Henry Jennings, Benjamin Hornigold, and Blackbeard, this book traces the turbulent path from wartime plunder to open rebellion on the seas. It is a compelling account of empire, treasure, maritime labor, and the desperate men who turned the Caribbean into a pirate stronghold.
