Fantastic Free Book On 1600s Pirates Carribbean

WOW...this was an amazing read. FREE from Amazon if you have a Kindle or Kindle app..Some highlights

A legal certificate from the governor of St. Domingo reporting someone’s descent into Piracy
A failed and bloody attack on a port town
A letter from the President of Panama begging the pirates to make peace (and the pirates’ reply: a ransom letter and the decapitated heads of Panamanian sailors)
Descriptions of the weird and wonderful plants, animals and foods (including the strange Banana!) of the Caribbean.
Descriptions of daily life aboard a pirate ship.
Earthquakes, storms, battles, and A LOT of navigation.

And they do have a part where they are actually at Deep Blue's area in the DR...First published around 1680, a first hand account of the pirate life.
