La Leyenda Del Pirata Mundaca

Michael Holm

Description

Fermin Antonio Mundaca y Marecheaga was born in Spain in 1825 and became a wealthy man as a result of his involvement in shipping, but mostly from the slave trade. That is the reason for his reputation as a pirate. Mundaca actually existed.
This book is historical fiction with roots in true events and research of the vessels, the weaponry, the equipment, sailing skills, and the impact of world commerce, including slavery, during that era. The majority of the narrative is based on actual events.
The book follows the life of Mundaca from his boyhood and early enlistment in the Spanish Navy, his travels around the world, to his death in Mexico and the resultant legend on Isla Mujeres, an island off the Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico, in the State of Quintana Roo, where the legend continues.
