Barrie, J.M. Peter Pan . Captain Hook is a make-believe pirate, but a memorable one! If you think this book is just for little kids, think again. You have to be a little older to see the real terror and the real humor here. Doyle, Sir Arthur Conan. Tales of Pirates and Blue Water . The creator of Sherlock Holmes was fond of sea stories, and this is a collection of his own pirating tales. Gardner, Cliff. Black Caesar, Pirate . Henri Caesar was a real person. Beginning his career as a slave in Haiti, he becomes the terror of the seas as a pirate in this fictional version of his career. Larson, Bjorn. Long John Silver . Translated from the Swedish, this is a fictional "autobiography" of Robert Louis Stevenson's Long John Silver, telling us about all his adventures before and after Treasure Island. O'Brian, Patrick. Master and Commander. Patrick O'Brian wrote some twenty novels about the staunch English captain John Aubrey and his ship's surgeon, the secretive Stephen Maturin. These are not easy books, and they only occasionally deal with pirates, but for anyone who loves the sea, they're a real treasure. Sabatini, Rafael.

HOME TIME AND SPACE PREHISTORY MESOPOTAMIA ... Haiti The Pirates The beginning of the colonial era in the Caribbean was also known as the "Golden Age of Piracy." The Caribbean Sea was thousands of miles from European control, making the region a prime target for pirates who patrolled the seas in order to steal. The Europeans monarchs could not afford to send their naval forces to the Caribbean, so they instead issued "letters of marque" that allowed the owners of private ships to attack ships from rival nations. These ship captains were known as privateers, and they were legal pirates turned over a portion of what they seized to the government that sponsored them. One of the most famous privateers was Sir Francis Drake, who sailed for England while England was at war with Spain. Drake not only raided ships, he also attacked Spanish towns and mule trains carrying gold. Drake was not an outlaw, at least in England. Queen Elizabeth I chose him to be the second person after Magellan to lead a sailing expedition around the world. Shortly after Drake completed his journey in 1580, Elizabeth addressed him as "my dear pirate," and over the objections of the Spanish, she knighted him.

It is usually large enough to carry its own boats, such as lifeboats, dinghies, or runabouts. A rule of thumb saying (though it doesn't always apply) is "a boat can fit on a ship, but a ship can't fit on a boat". The exact size at which a ship becomes a boat is often defined by local law and regulation. Submarines are always called boats. Click the link for more information.

More Stories "A pirate's lot is not a happy one" -a historical look A pirate crew might be a foul-mouthed, hard drinking, quick-tempered lot, but still subject to strict discipline. The "rear' pirate's articles covered daily shipboard behavior. They had "insurance" schemes for injury in action and even compensation to relatives in case of death. The Tortuga buccaneers received 600 pieces of eight (silver) or six slaves (men captured from enemy ships) for the loss of a right arm; but an eye or a finger was worth 100 pieces of eight or one slave. A better arrangement than we have today? For minor misbehavior, such as drunkenness, a pirate might be clapped in irons or flogged. (We send them to their rooms). For cowardice, disobedience or desertion a pirate stood to be tried and shot. Personal feuds would often be settled by sword or pistol duel. Sometimes unruly pirates were marooned on a lonely island. Despite the stories, however, there is no evidence that any pirate captain made a culprit walk the plank (yet). The basic conditions for signing on was "no purchase, no pay." In other words, a pirate received no salary but could share in the spoils in proportion

Pirates and Piracy A pirate is a robber who attack ships. Although piracy has occurred since ancient times, the golden era of piracy was the sixteenth through eighteenth centuries on the Mediterranean and Caribbean seas. When the early American colonists established successful trade routes to Europe, many pirates turned their attention to the Atlantic. Pirates have been the subject of much literature, and thousands of Web sites are devoted to their study. Welcome aboard, swabbie! Discovery Online: Pirate Ghosts Discover with Discovery Online why "some of the most feared pirates of all time are coming back to life. Blackbeard is back, and Black Sam Bellamy, who raided ships throughout the Caribbean, is probably more famous now than he was in his heyday. Both have been revived through sunken ships." Two real pirate ships have been found along the eastern shoreline. Bellamy's ship, the Whydah, was discovered off Cape Cod in 1984 and Blackbeard's Queen Anne's Revenge was found in 1997 in just twenty feet of water off the coast of North Carolina. Now that's a buried treasure! National Geographic Pirates!

The anecdotes are entertaining, and are well written, so that the book flows along nicely. For people who are looking for a history book, the style of Cordinglys writing is a bit informal and some of his information on pirates doesnt get very in depth (although his extensive list of sources shows that he could be in depth, and gives the reader a chance to research more for his/herself if he/she so desires), but for someone who is looking for information about pirates and a good read, this book is excellent. I highly recommend it.
