Filibusters Rise Off Hispaniola In Early Atlantic History
The narrative describes late 17th and 18th century marauders across the Atlantic who attacked Spanish ships and coastal towns. French, Dutch, and English freebooters formed fleets near San Domingo, raiding 200 mile coastlines, seizing ships, and press-ganging crews to swell their ranks. Their exploits include Legrand of Dieppe boarding a Spanish galleon and other acts of piracy that shaped regional conflict and commerce.
