The events in the Swashbuckler books take place in the glory days of sailing ships. Here you can read about the history of seafaring, the ships of the times, and real life in the Mediterranean in the 18th century:

I must go down to the sea again, to the lonely sea and the sky,
And all I ask is a tall ship, and a star to steer her by.

— John Masefield
