Set against the backdrop of the War of Jenkins' Ear, this narrative chronicles Commodore George Anson's perilous voyage to attack Spanish territories in South America. Despite facing dire challenges like severe weather and scurvy, Anson's flagship completed a historic circumnavigation of the globe, while most of his squadron met tragic fates. Highlighted by the capture of a treasure galleon, the account, recorded by Anson's chaplain Richard Walter, became a sensational publication in 1748, offering an exhilarating and poignant tale of adventure and resilience.
