Tales Of The Spanish Main is a book written by Mowbray Morris that tells the thrilling stories of piracy and adventure in the Caribbean Sea during the 16th and 17th centuries. The book explores the history of the Spanish Main, the region that stretches along the northern coast of South America and Central America, and was a popular target for pirates and privateers.The book is divided into several chapters, each dedicated to a different pirate or privateer who sailed the Spanish Main. The stories are based on historical events and are told in a narrative style that captures the excitement and danger of life at sea during this era.Readers will meet notorious pirates such as Blackbeard, Henry Morgan, and William Kidd, as well as lesser-known but equally fascinating characters like Francois L'Olonnais and Anne Bonny. The book also delves into the political and economic factors that drove piracy in the region, including the rivalry between Spain and England, and the lucrative trade in gold, silver, and other valuable commodities.Overall, Tales Of The Spanish Main is a thrilling and informative read that will appeal to anyone interested in the history of piracy, the Caribbean Sea, or the age of exploration.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A concise outline of Britain's first conflict in Afghanistan Whereas the history of British invasion, occupation, adventure and misadventure in Afghanistan in the nineteenth century is well known to military historians, there can be little doubt that the deployment of British soldiers into that daunting and perilous country in recent times has once again brought its affairs into sharp focus. Most will understand the perennial problems of operating in difficult terrain occupied by a fierce independent people where occupation is often confined to the ground upon which the army stands. In this little or nothing has changed for any foreign army that ventures beyond the Khyber Pass. Consideration of the domination of Afghanistan became inevitable as the British Empire inexorably expanded to the entire Indian sub-continent. The first occasion the British seriously engaged the Afghans by marching into their country was in 1839. Very few survivors of the force that occupied Kabul marched back into India again and the 'peace' in 1842 was inconclusive, as history has shown. Since that time this problematic region has been an a feature of the lives of British soldiers through several wars and troubles. This book, a short sketch of the First Afghan War delivered in the most direct terms for those who seek an understanding of how it all began, underlines the uncomfortable parallels between that inhospitable region in the early nineteenth century and almost two centuries later. Available in softcover and back with dust jacket.
