As long as men have sailed the seas, fearsome pirates have terrorized merchants and captured the imaginations of landlubbers everywhere. Pirates scrapes off the heavily encrusted legends of such colorful figures such as Captain Kidd, Blackbeard, and Bartholomew Roberts, brigands whose names strike fear into maritime merchants even today. The book focuses on the known facts of these pirates, as well as their everyday lives, the codes of honor they lived under, and many other facts that will surprise even those who study and play on the high seas.
