About This Book

A first-person narrator describes a real search for a buried pirate treasure that begins when a tenant leaves a mysterious document. He teams with a cautious, businesslike colleague who insists on a methodical, risk-averse approach, studying past failures to avoid the bloodshed that often accompanies treasure hunts. The account contrasts the narrator’s romantic impulses with careful logistical planning, covering decisions about crew selection, outfitting, and tactics to prevent mutiny, and it combines character portraiture with the practical preparations and anxieties of mounting an expedition.
