An authentic narrative by Richard Le Gallienne presents the discovery of a treasure in the Bahama Islands in 1903. The work is released to the public for the first time, detailing the events and findings of the expedition.
The narrator recalls a summer in Nassau Bahamas with John Saunders and Charlie Webster as they examine a deathbed treasure statement by a Texas pirate. The document describes buried chests at Dead Men's Shoes near Nassau and Short Shrift Island with a million and a half dollars and further riches, while a suspicious half breed watches. The manuscript vanishes just as they read it.
A romantic piece praising Pieces of Eight by Richard Le Gallienne blends piracy myth with treasure imagery. It links buccaneer days to tropical paradise and the allure of love and mystery through poetry and prose.
