Crack open the true legends of the Golden Age of Piracy with this vibrant new edition of A General History of the Pyrates, the book that launched Blackbeard, Anne Bonny, Bartholomew Roberts, and their infamous brethren into global consciousness. Dive into this epic history with digitally restored engravings, an expanded sea-term glossary, and the untamed language of the eighteenth century, then set sail on a journey across the oceans with the world’s most notorious outlaws. This pristine reproduction of the 2nd edition, published in 1724, features sixteen of the most influential pirate captains of the early 1700s, as well as chapters on the two female pirates, Anne Bonny and Mary Read. No other book in history has had a more profound influence on our understanding of these legendary criminals and their impact on the world.Whether you’re a seasoned scholar or a new recruit, this is your invitation to experience pirate history as it was meant to be: bold, bawdy, and brimming with adventure.
