Five West-Indian pirates attempt to recapture 17th-century pirate
glory on the East-Indian isle of Madagascar. Edward England, Edward
Congdon, Olivier LeVasseur, and Richard Taylor sail to Madagascar
in 1720 and join with Jasper Seager to make havoc against the
East-Indian Company. These are the stories of their misadventures
and lives. Some lived opulently - some died horrible deaths. They
met Dutch, French, Portuguese, Spanish, and the native
Betsimisaraka with whom they shared their short lives. They also
captured a Portuguese Viceroy, the Fort at Delagoa, East-India
Company officials, including an angry Scottish captain, and traded
with a Royal Navy Commodore intent upon an illicit trade in gold
and jewels!
