NATHANIEL'S NUTMEG is a fascinating book filled with the history of the amazing sea adventurers who searched for routes to the Spice Islands. The courage of those men who sailed the uncharted seas will keep anyone enchanted who desires to read about true bravery. Years of conflict took place between the Dutch who controlled the East India Company and the British who constantly challenged them for the lucrative spice trade.
