Bucaniers of America: or, a true account of the most remarkable assaults committed of late years upon the coasts of the West-Indies, by the bucaniers of Jamaica and Tortuga, both English and French. Wherein are contained more especially, the unparallel'd exploits of Sir Henry Morgan, our English Jamaican hero, who sack'd Puerto Velo, burnt Panama, &c. Written originally in Dutch by John Esquemeling, one of the bucaniers, who was present at those tragedies; and thence translated into Spanish by Alonso de Bonne-maison, Doctor of Physick, and practitioner at Amsterdam. Now faithfully rendred into English.
