Description
From a Dutch edition of George Anson's account of his circumnavigation, one of the last great buccaneering voyages. He captured a Spanish galleon laden with so much silver that they needed thirty-two wagons to transfer it to the Tower of London.
The map has an extra title in Dutch in upper right hand corner.
In 1740 Anson set sail in command of a squadron sent to attack Spanish possessions and interests in South America. The ill-equipped expedition failed to carry out its original ambitious mission and the squadron nearly perished. In June 1741 Anson collected the remaining survivors on his flagship, the Centurion, and set sail in search of one of the richly laden galleons that conducted the trade between Mexico and the Philippines. The indomitable perseverance he had shown during one of the most arduous voyages the history of sea adventure gained the reward of the capture of an immensely rich prize, the Nuestra Señora de Covadonga, which he encountered off Cap de Espiritu Santo on June 20, 1743.
