Excerpt from Under the Black Ensign Who seeks the roar and smoke of battle, the clash of mighty ﬂeets, let him turn elsewhere - oi such he will find nought herein. These records are but the memoirs of a dug-out, of one who, although he spent four years in their fulness at sea in the war zone, yet heard no shot fired in anger save once. But he who would know the world of the sea as the author saw it, and learn of subjects so far apart and so apparently incongruous as tape-worms and torpedoes, let him turn these pages. Recorded in them he will find both the marvellous and the merely ridiculous, yet is each incident set forth a historical and unimpeachable truth. Lest the unwitty should marvel at the title of this work, let it be known to such that Under the Black Ensign is a phrase intended to embrace in one heading all those little ships of the late war Navy - destroyers, tugs, trawlers, boarding steamers, and the like. These, though officially exalted to the status of ships entitled to wear a white Ensign, yet in actual practice rarely did so, but ﬂung to the breeze a banner as black and tattered as their own grubby and insignificant piratic selves.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Under Fire IT is ten years since The Colonel's Daughter ventured before the public and found so many friends that Marion's Faith and later Captain Blake set forth in reinforcement, and even then there came the call for more. Pelham's old regiment was not the only one to contain either odd, laughable, or lovable characters, so now the curtain is raised on the Eleventh Horse, - a command as apocryphal as the - th, yet equally distinguished in the eyes of those who trod.

Excerpt from Under the Great Seal, Vol. 1 of 3 As the stony wilderness of some barren strand is unexpectedly decorated with a flower, so did Hannah Plympton dawn upon the uncouth community of Heart's Delight. A blush-rose from the stock of a Devonshire garden, she adorned the waste of a Newfoundland settlement in the youngest days of the oldest British Colony. Newfoundland had secret ties for some of the early settlers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

“This is the most authoritative and highly literate account of these pernicious people that I have ever read.”—Patrick O'Brian “[A] wonderfully entertaining history of pirates and piracy . . . a rip-roaring read . . . fascinating and unexpected.”—Men's Journal This rollicking account of the golden age of piracy is packed with vivid history and high seas adventure. David Cordingly, an acclaimed expert on pirates, reveals the spellbinding truth behind the legends of Blackbeard, Captain Kidd, Sir Francis Drake, the fierce female brigands Mary Read and Anne Bonny, and others who rode and robbed upon the world's most dangerous waters. Here, in thrilling detail, are the weapons they used, the ships they sailed, and the ways they fought—and were defeated. Under the Black Flag also charts the paths of fictional pirates such as Captain Hook and Long John Silver. The definitive resource on the subject, this book is as captivating as it is supremely entertaining. Praise for Under the Black Flag “[A] lively history . . . If you've ever been seduced by the myth of the cutlass-wielding pirate, consider David Cordingly's Under the Black Flag.”—USA Today, “Best Bets” “Engagingly told . . . a tale of the power of imaginative literature to re-create the past.”—Los Angeles Times “Entirely engaging and informative . . . a witty and spirited book.”—The Washington Post Book World “Plenty of thrills and adventure to satisfy any reader.”—The Philadelphia Inquirer

Excerpt from On the Heels of De Wet Sins of others. It is the author's conviction that cases were rare when the ship did not sail true enough: in the beginning she may have badly wanted cleaning below the water line, but she never failed to answer her helm. It was more often the man at the helm than the sailing quality of the vessel that was at fault, and the marvel is that she was of sufficiently tough construction to be able to stand the stress incurred by indifferent seamanship.

Long before Captain Jack Sparrow raised hell with the Pirates of the Caribbean, Tom Bristol sailed to hell and back Under the Black Ensign. That’s where the real adventure begins. Bristol’s had plenty of bad luck in his life. Press-ganged into serving aboard a British vessel, he’s felt the cruel captain’s lash on his back. Then, freed from his servitude by pirates, his good fortune immediately takes a bad turn ... the buccaneers accuse him of murder and leave him to die on a deserted island. Now all he has left are a few drops of water, a gun and just enough bullets to put himself out of his misery. But Bristol’s luck is about to change. Finding himself in the unexpected company of a fiery woman, he rescues a slave ship, unsheathes his sword, raises a pirate flag of his own and sets off to make love and war on the open seas in this nautical adventure. In his early twenties, Hubbard led the two-and-a-half-month, five-thousand-mile Caribbean Motion Picture Expedition. He followed that with the West Indies Mineralogical Expedition near San Juan, Puerto Rico, in which he completed the island’s first mineralogical survey as an American territory. It was during these two journeys that Hubbard became an expert on the Caribbean’s colorful history—an expertise he drew on to write stories like Under the Black Ensign. “A riveting tale of sailing ships, piracy and the high seas.” —Midwest Book Review * A National Indie Excellence Award Winner
