ʻO Lo de Gisbert Haefs kahi ola i hoʻolaʻa ʻia i nā puke ma ka unuhi ʻana o nā mea kākau ʻokoʻa loa a ma kahi puke puke puke ponoʻī e waiwai ana i kāna mau kuhikuhi eclectic maopopo a me nā ʻano like ʻole i kona hiki ke kamaʻilio i nā ʻano ʻokoʻa loa.
I kēia manawa ke hoʻokokoke aku nei mākou i kahi puke mōʻaukala e pili ana i kekahi o kēlā mau wahi wela i ka wā imperialist lōʻihi o ʻEulopa i hala i ka batona mai kekahi ʻāina i kahi ʻāina ʻē aʻe i manaʻo ʻia he loaʻa nā honua hou i manaʻo ʻia nona ponoʻī. Kahi puke pili, e pili ana i ka paio ma waena o nā aupuni Sepania a me Pelekane, me nā mea i hala iho nei Ua eo ʻo ʻEnelanina Álvaro van de Brule.

A ʻo ia ka wā o nā ʻauwaʻa ʻEnelani, nā luna a me nā mea i pale i nā buccaneers, nā filibusters ke ʻole pono nā powa e mālama i ka hōʻeha i nā mea āpau e like me ka waiwai a me ka mana i ka hopena no ka hanohano o ka hae Pelekane.
I kēia kūlana kūpono ʻole no kahi aupuni Sepania nāwaliwali, ʻo nā ʻāpana hope loa o ka haʻaheo e lilo i mau hakakā me nā leo o ka eo no Sepania kahiko. ʻO Jenkins kekahi o kēlā mau buccaneers i hoʻouna ʻia mai Ladana e hūnā i kona ʻano ma lalo o ke kuleana o kahi mea kālepa maʻalahi.

ʻO ka pepeiao o Jenkins, i hoʻokaʻawale ʻia e ke kāpena Sepania ʻo Juan León Fandiño ka hōʻailona o ka hoʻomaka ʻana o kahi kaua Caribbean i makemake mau ʻia e ʻEnelani e makemake nui ana i kahi casus beli e haki i nā lole Spania āpau ma ka Caribbean.
Hoʻohui ʻia ka ʻoiaʻiʻo a me ka fiction i kahi ʻano kaua e makemake ai ʻo Dr. Tobias Smollett e hana i kāna pono ponoʻī ma o ka hoʻolaʻa ʻana iā ia iho i ka ʻimi ʻana i kahi waiwai e hiki ai ke lawe iā ia i ka hanohano nui a hiki ke kūkulu hou i nā waihona kālā o kahi aupuni ʻEnelani e pono ai ka hoʻokele waiwai. ka mana me ia e hoʻomau ai i kāu kūlana holomua i ka honua hou.
