'A roaring tale ... remains as vivid and exciting today as it was
on publication in 1697' Guardian The pirate and adventurer William
Dampier circumnavigated the globe three times, and took notes
wherever he went. This is his frank, vivid account of his
buccaneering sea voyages around the world, from the Caribbean to
the Pacific and East Indies. Filled with accounts of raids,
escapes, wrecks and storms, it also contains precise observations
of people, places, animals and food (including the first English
accounts of guacamole, mango chutney and chopsticks). A bestseller
on publication, this unique record of the colonial age influenced
Robinson Crusoe, Gulliver's Travels and consequently the whole of
English literature. Edited with an Introduction by Nicholas Thomas
