notes:
On May 1, 1669, Captain Henry Morgan sailed a ship purposely set alight into the flagship of the Spanish admiral in the harbor of the town of Maracaibo in present-day Venezuela causing it to sink. Another ship was scuttled by the Spaniards to keep it from being taken by Morgan's men. A third Spanish ship was captured by the pirates. The Spanish fleet was commanded by Admiral Alonso del Campo y Espinosa. Part I of the Bucaniers of America was written by Alexandre Olivier Exquemelin.
