Long before Blackbeard, Captain Kidd and Black Barty terrorized the Caribbean, the seas around the British Isles swarmed with pirates. Thousands of mariners turned to piracy at sea, often as a makeshift strategy of survival. This book examines Britain's first pirates, from Captain Strangeways to Francis Drake.
