This book, "Captain and Macumba," is a sequel to an earlier book;"Macumba, Slave ship Captain." Reading of this book is not contingent upon reading its predecessor. "Captain and Macumba," is a continuation of events that befall an enslaved African chief who revolts on a slave ship and becomes captain of that ship. Due to circumstances, Macumba becomes the partner of a Dutch pirate and their adventures encompass the Atlantic Ocean as well as the Indian Ocean. The backdrop for this story is the slave trade in the late seventeen hundreds when slaves were captured in Africa and sold all over the world. The Captain and Macumba become involved in an adversarial role against the slavers and the Spanish navy who ruled the seas. This adversarial role included pirating slave ships and armed conflict with the Spanish navy and its army and the many Arabs and their ships that were in Africa rounding up slaves for the market.
