For the first time, Dampier's handwritten journal (Sloan MS 3236) is available in print. The Adventures of William Dampier is substantively different from Dampier's New Voyage Round The World and has been crafted to highlight those differences. Also included are reproductions of the 26 draughts Dampier drew in his journal and of the maps from New Voyage.
Adventures presents the reader with Dampier's untold story: an exciting version of piratical rampaging up and down the coasts of Central and South America, Africa, and the East Indies.
The Adventures of William Dampier is a must read for folk curious about the freebooting lifestyle of adventurers like Dampier during the age of piracy, sail, discovery, and the dawn of science.
