RE: The Ink Well Prompt #28: Atrevida and Descubierta double shipwreck

in The Ink Well3 years ago (edited)

Interesting story that touches tangentially on the slave trade on vessels that were known as slave ships. Many of these ships were shipwrecked, full of slaves, in the heyday of the slave economy that lasted until the slave ships were considered pirate ships. Your story has overtones of historical fiction, though in the end it comes across as a grandfather reading to a child.
