Buccaneers and Pirates of Our Coasts Quotes Showing 1-1 of 1
“When the buccaneers had begun to understand each other and to effect organizations among themselves, they adopted a general name,—"The Brethren of the Coast." The outside world, especially the Spanish world, called them pirates, sea-robbers, buccaneers,—any title which would express their lawless character, but in their own denomination of themselves they expressed only their fraternal relations; and for the greater part of their career, they truly stood by each other like brothers.”
Frank R. Stockton, Buccaneers and Pirates of Our Coasts
