A traveler's diary has been discovered, who fought pirates in the Caribbean

The diary of a famous British traveler was discovered in Great Britain, who saved the life of the real Robinson Crusoe and fought pirates in the Caribbean. Numbering approx 300 years, the journals of Captain Woodes Rogers describe his 3-year journey around the world, during which a fearless sailor amassed a fortune by robbing pirate ships and Spanish galleons. Just during this trip, friend of the writer Daniel Defoe Rogers took the survivor Alexander Selkirk to an island in the Pacific Ocean, which became the prototype of the hero of the famous novel. A few years after Rogers' return to his homeland, approx 100 copies of his journal “A Cruising Voyage Around The World”, one of which was found recently in Bristol. The unique volume will be auctioned at the end of January, during which it can reach the price 3000 pounds.
