Cup Of Gold : A Life Of Sir Henry Morgan, Buccaneer, With Occasional Reference To History

This lush, lyrical fantasy is Steinbeck's sole work of historical fiction. Henry Morgan ruled the Spanish Main in the 1670s, ravaging the coasts of Cuba and America and striking terror wherever he went. His lust and greed knew no bounds, and he was utterly consumed by two passions; to possess the mysterious woman known as La Santa Roja, the Red Saint, and to conquer Panama and wrest 'the cup of gold' from Spanish hands.Author: Steinbeck, Mr John,author Contributors: Steinbeck, Mr John,author Binding: paperback Number Of Pages: 240 Publication Date: Release Date: Languages: English,Published,English,Original Language,Englis Published/Release Date: 1 Mar 2001 Format: Paperback / softback Publisher/Studio/Brand: Penguin Books Ltd Author/Director/Artist: John Steinbeck Dimension (cm): 1x1x1 mm Package Dimension (cm): 16x194x128 mm Item Weight (g): 145 Package Weight (g): 181
