Pirates: The True and Surprising Story of the Pirates of the Caribbean
by Patrick Auerbach
3.9 Stars (55 Reviews)
Genre: History | Foreign Languages

FREE for a limited time

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.

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.
