BOOK DESCRIPTION:
A comprehensive study of piracy from the 1600s to the
1900s. Each chapter is written by a different expert and covers one aspect
of the topic, including piracy in the Caribbean, the Mediterranean and,
unlike most books on the subject, the pirates of the Far East. A chapter
also is devoted to modern pirates and the steps the international community
is taking to eliminate them. The book contains many pictures of artifacts,
16th- and 17th-century illustrations, color paintings by noted artists
Howard Pyle and Frank Schoonover, and period photographs of pirates and
anti-piracy operations from the past 140 years. The text is well written and
easy to follow. An ideal companion to Cordingly's Under the Black Flag
