Malgré l’Edit de Nantes, les protestants, sous Louis XIV, étaient mal vus en France. Ils trouvèrent un exutoire dans la Caraïbe où leur esprit d’entreprise, leur rôle dans l’administration de la Compagnie des Indes occidentales, le commerce, la Marine, et les plantations, facilitèrent leur culte. Devant les grands besoins en marins de Colbert, le protestantisme de ceux du golfe de Gascogne, ou même leur aptitude, ne fut pas un obstacle, même pour une place de capitaine. Au-dessus, la conversion était obligatoire. Ce livre expose, à partir d’archives peu connues, les attaques incessantes des Anglais contre la Guadeloupe, la Martinique, mais aussi le chapelet des petites et très riches îles : Saint-Cristophle, Saint-Eustache, le grand assaut français de Curaçao en 1673, les aventures du corsaire Trébutor. Le drame final de notre ouvrage se nouera sur les côtes d’Aquitaine, quand bien avant la révocation de l’Edit de Nantes en 1685, la présence d’un protestant dans le jury d’un procès naval à la Rochelle provoquera l’intervention rageuse, et inédite à ce jour, du Roi-soleil.
