The Pirate King - J.M. Clements
KORTE INHOUD
Coxinga, the eldest son of China's richest smuggler was raised in a palace and sent to elite schools, where he developed a love of poetry and Confucian pbilosophy. Coxinga became one of the last warriors loyal to the doomed Ming emperor. The collapse of the Ming dynasty in 1644 shaped Coxinga's life. It transformed him from a wealthy child of privilege into a renegade with a price on his head. Coxinga turned to piracy and later was made a God. This book tells the incredible true story of this infamous pirate king in full for the first time.
