Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Book of Buried Treasure: Being a True History of the Gold, Jewels, and Plate of Pirates, Galleons, Etc;, Which Are Sought for to This Day
The language has no more boldly romantic words than pirate and galleon and the dullest imagination is apt to be kindled by any plausible dream Of finding their lost treasures hidden on lonely beach or tropic key, or sunk fathoms deep in salt water. In the preface Of that rare and exceedingly diverting vol ume, The Pirates' Own Book, the unnamed author sums up the matter with SO much gusto and with so gorgeously appetizing a avor that he is worth quoting to this extent.
