Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1st Edition, Limited Edition. The Scourge of the Indies: Buccaneers, Corsairs, & Filibusters, From Original Texts and Contemporary Engravings by Maurice Besson hardcover in dustjacket, Published by Random House, 1929. Limited edition of 1040 copies A captivating account of the lives and adventures of the most famous French buccaneers in the West Indies. Maurice Besson tells us the kind of life the Filibusters led, of the women among them, and relates the exploits of such men as the Chevalier de Grammont, Nau l'Olonnais, and Ravenau de Lussan (whose diary of a voyage to the Southern Seas he reproduces in great part). Then the author leaves the West Indies and gives us a contemporary account of François Thurot who, at the end of the 18th century, caused considerable trouble and alarm to the English by his corsair expeditions in the seas around Great Britain. "The Scourge of the Indies" ends with the interesting story of d'Albarade, a corsair who became Minister of Marine in the French Revolution. This work is splendidly illustrated .
