During the early 19th century, Spain was losing its grip on her American colonies, resulting in a surge of privateering and West Indian piracy. British Royal Navy ships hunted down pirates wherever they could be found, especially along the Cuban coast. The climax of long days, weeks, and months of pursuit was the capture of the notorious Captain Cayetano Aragonés in his schooner the Zaragozana. This book’s groundbreaking research gathered from eight nations delves into the history and genealogy of Cuban piracy. Accompanied by dozens of vivid images, the narrative follows the swashbuckling action amid tense trials and somber executions, chronicling the attempt to end the scourge of piracy from Cuba.
