Excerpt from The Essex Antiquarian, 1897, Vol. 1: A Monthly Magazine Devoted to the Biography, Genealogy, History and Antiquities of Essex County, Massachusetts Little commerce in the way of trade had been carried on during the seven years of war, and on the return of peace the merchants found themselves possessed of many swift-sailing vessels larger than any they had used prior to the Revolution. They were too large to be profitably em ployed in domestic commerce or in the short voyages to their hitherto visited European and other ports. The mer chants determined to visit new and more distant countries, and begin trade with their peoples. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Essex Antiquarian, Vol. 1: A Monthly Magazine Devoted to the Biography, Genealogy, History and Antiquities of Essex County, Massachusetts The snow-white sails of the merchant ships of Salem were soon seen in every water of the then known world, and Salem became famous in the uttermost parts, its name becoming as widely known as that of America. Many of the voyages of the merchant ships were not less exciting and danger ous than the experiences of the privateers in the Revolution. The history of the period is crowded with incidents of dar ing and adventure in unknown seas and in ports never before visited by Ameri cans, encounters with pirates and tribes of cruel and treacherous savages, who were ready to commit any atrocity for plunder, contests with the armed ships of France and England, imprisonment among the Algerines and in the dungeons of F rance and Spain. Now and then Salem crews fell victims to the pirates and cruel Ma lays. Even the most romantic imagina tions fail to conceive the parallel of those times.
