Everybody knows the legend of Captain Kidd, America's most ruthless buccanneer. Few people realize that the facts of his life make for a much better tale. Kidd was actually a tough New York sea captain hired to chase pirates, a married war hero whose secret mission took a spectacularly bad turn. This harrowing tale traces Kidd's voyages in the 1690s from his home near Wall Street to Whitehall Palace in London, from the ports of the Caribbean to a secret pirate paradise off Madagascar. Author Richard Zacks, during his research, also unearthed the story of a long forgotten rogue named Robert Culliford, who dogged Kidd and led Kidd's crew to mutiny not once but twice. The lives of Kidd and Culliford play out like an unscripted duel: one man would hang in the harbor, the other would walk away with the treasure. Filled with superb writing and impeccable research, The Pirate Hunter is both a masterpiece of historical detective work and a ripping good yarn, and it delivers something rare: an authentic pirate story for grown-ups.

This is the first in a series of story and activity books for children aged nine and over containing a short history of, and interesting facts about, special subjects of interest. This first book in the series: The REAL Story of Pirates - Fun Facts, Tall Tales, and Awesome Activities, offers real information related to pirates and life at sea; as well as brief profiles of famous pirates of the past. Illustrations (which are meant to be colored) of pirates and the equipment they used in work and daily life are also here. Every year, on September 19th, many people around the world participate in International Talk Like a Pirate Day. Did you know that real Pirates didn't really talk that way? This pirate-style of speaking heard in films and on TV was copied from actor Robert Newton. Did you know, too, the young American Colonies defeated Britain with the help of Privateers? Privateers were pirates for hire. Did you also know that many common phrases heard today came from the classic age of pirates and seafaring? For example, The expression Pipe Down, which means to be quiet, originally meant the last signal of the day from a pipe or whistle from a ship officer called a bosun, indicating it was time to go to sleep. Many other such words and phrases are explained within these pages. Facts and stories like these, as well as fun coloring pages, a maze, and other activities are included in the book. There are also recommendations for discussing pirates with your children or grandkids, and even full instructions on how to host an inexpensive pirate-themed party for your special child's birthday, or other special event!

Piracy is an act of robbery or criminal violence at sea. Those who engage in acts of piracy are called pirates. The era of piracy in the Caribbean began in the 1500s and died out in the 1830s after the navies of the nations of Western Europe and North America with colonies in the Caribbean began combating pirates. In the early eighteenth century a number of the great pirate captains, including Edward 'Blackbeard' Teach and 'Black Sam' Bellamy, joined forces. This infamous 'Pirating Gang' was more than simply a thieving band of brothers. Many of its members had come to piracy as a revolt against conditions in the merchant fleet and in the cities and plantations in the Old and New Worlds. Piracy flourished in the Caribbean because of the existence of pirate seaports such as Port Royal in Jamaica, Tortuga in Haiti, and Nassau in the Bahamas. Inspired by notions of self-government, they established a crude but distinctive form of democracy in the Bahamas, carving out their own zone of freedom in which indentured servants were released and leaders chosen or deposed by a vote.

The Actual Truth Of The Real Pirates Of The Caribbean Story... Claim Your FREE Bonuses After the Conclusion! The Pirate is one of the best-known and most-loved anti-heroes. The image of a swaggering adventurer in a tricorne hat and a pair of long leather sea-boots has been a part of Western popular culture for more than three hundred years. However, a great deal of what we believe about Pirates is actually based on fictional stories and even the popular conception of what a Pirate looks like is based on a very specific time and place. The truth is that Pirates have been around for as long as humans have been sailing ships out of sight of land. Most real Pirates were simply bands of professional criminals who were unable or unwilling to find legal work. Murder, torture, rape, kidnapping and extortion were all in a day's work for the average Pirate. Pirate Captains generally ended up in charge for no other reason than they were even more psychotic and violent than their crews! The image of the Pirate still exerts a strong pull on the popular imagination and features in many successful movies, books and plays. In modern times, when it sometimes feels as if our every action is controlled by rules and regulations, the idea of a free-booting anarchist defying the system has become even more popular. But what is the truth behind the popular conception of the Pirate? Let's try to cut through the myth and see if we can discover the real story behind the legendary Pirates of the Caribbean... Here Is A Preview Of What's Inside... Pirates: Dead Men Tell No Tales Pirates: A Shot Across the Bows Pirates: Dancing the Hempen Jig Pirates: Shiver Me Timbers! Pirates: Scupper That!

Treasure Island is an adventure classic written by Robert Louis Stevenson, narrating a tale of "buccaneers and buried gold". Its influence is enormous on our own perception of pirates, including treasure maps marked with an "X", schooners, the Black Spot, tropical islands, and one-legged seamen bearing parrots on their shoulders. Stevenson stated "Treasure Island came out of the great Captain Johnson's History of the Notorious Pirates.", which is included in this edition in its entirety with all the incredible life stories of the notorious world famous pirates that inspired Stevenson and are also mentioned in the novel.
