"Brethren of the Coast: Buccaneers of the South Seas" appears to be referencing a specific work, likely a book, about the Brethren of the Coast and their activities in the Pacific Ocean (also known as the "South Seas"). The title sugg…ests a focus on the English and French buccaneers who operated in the late 17th and early 18th centuries, including those who crossed the Isthmus of Darien to attack Spanish ports on the Pacific coast. Here is more information on the history and legacy of these buccaneers. Historical context Brethren of the Coast: While the Brethren of the Coast primarily operated in the Caribbean, they also launched attacks against Spanish targets in the Pacific Ocean. Some of their leaders, like Henry Morgan, are famously associated with the Caribbean, but the Brethren's ventures extended to the Pacific seaboard of South America. Expansion to the Pacific: European rivals of Spain, including the English, French, and Dutch, encouraged privateers and buccaneers to attack Spanish possessions in the New World. This included venturing into the Pacific, which Spain had historically controlled as a "Spanish lake". Key figures: The expeditions into the Pacific included notable figures such as Francis Drake, English privateers, and later buccaneers like William Dampier. They would cross overland through the jungles of Central America or navigate around Cape Horn to reach the Pacific. Notable documents: The buccaneers' voyages generated valuable information for European powers. Basil Ringrose, a buccaneer, wrote a detailed pilot book called the South Sea Waggoner around 1682, which described the Pacific coasts and contained the earliest English descriptions of the coast of California. Legacy and decline Decline of buccaneering: As European powers invested more in the defense of their colonies, and as colonial authorities sought more control, the era of officially-sanctioned buccaneering began to decline in the late 17th century. Many buccaneers turned to outright piracy, preying on ships of all nations. End of the "Spanish Lake": By the end of the 18th century, with the expansion of European knowledge and the end of Spain's exclusive claim to the Pacific, the era of buccaneering in the South Seas had ended.

Wear and tear to D/J. Couple of small pieces of D/J. missing. The brethren of the Coast were a cosmopolitan band of buccaneers; bloodthirsty, swashbuckling…marauders who roamed the seas from Hispaniola across to the Pacific and the East Indies in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, sacking the rich coastal settlemets of the Americas, pillaging those Spanish treasure whips symbolised by the fabulous Manila galleon which crossed the Pacific every twelve months, her hold heavy with the riches of the East. The authors have not allowed their careful scholarship to dull the essential excitement of this account of the brethren of the Coast. They have used the bucaneers' original manuscripts, several of them hitherto unstudied which many years ago inspired such masterpieces as Robinson Crusoe, The Time of the Ancient Mariner and Treasure Island. Illustrated. 248 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).
