  • Summary

  • The War of Jenkins’ Ear wasn’t really about an ear exactly and had more to do with trade. In a time of near constant warfare and the golden age of piracy nearing its end, Britain and Spain go to war yet again. Join us as we focus on the pivotal and disastrous Battle of Cartagena de Indias! Sources: Aldrete, Gregory S. History’s Greatest Military Blunders and the Lessons They Teach.
