The true story of the Caribbean Piracy has been obscured through time by whimsical stories, which create confusing and distorted images of these characters, by not defining the line that divides reality from fiction. In this book we will see the stark truth about them. We do not intend to give an exhaustive view of this activity, but rather to tell several stories based on the information obtained through documents from the protagonists of the events themselves, that is, from their victims and their persecutors. Most of them terrible, others romantic and heroic, about the life and actions of these legendary characters. Those who had as their framework of life the excessive ambition. A situation that generated a violent power struggle in the Caribbean, of people driven mad by the thirst for wealth, who lived on the edge of the abyss, expressing the worst of their twisted feelings. Bringing this as a result, actions of irreversible consequences, many of them served as an instrument to European empires with expansionist pretensions. They benefited in this way from the exploitation of the wealth that Spain obtained in America, on an exclusive basis. They used their supremacy as a power to impose a commercial and territorial monopoly in the new continent. Others acted on their own or in partnership with greedy merchants.
We intend to tell the stories around the facts, so that we can approach reality in a more efficient and direct way than in a conventional history book, thus offering a fully separated version of the myth in which these characters have been involved throughout time. Although several volumes of hundreds of pages would be necessary to relate the numerous acts of barbarism committed by these pirate men and women, although the latter in a very reduced number. We have summarized in it, the most prominent actors who left their mark on the Caribbean region. In the golden age of this society of adventurers.
In this book we will get to know the reasons that motivated these men to join piracy, we will see their faces, which sectors articulated around them, which kings used them as instruments, and which condemned them, to which criteria they obeyed, if their actions had political sense or if they acted individually, homosexuality in piracy, women pirates, why there were Jewish pirates in the Caribbean, which was their effect in the region, its contributions, its great actors, its codes, which empires were strengthened through its acts, which empire was weakened, and the reason for its decline.
