Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Accurate
Review: It's one of the best books I've read concerning piracy, and is fairly accurate. The one part I really love about this book, is of course, the one on Blackbeard. Regardless what kind of person he was, anyone can be inspired over the fact, that he was literally fearless. Instead of running from a fight, he would run to them. And when he died, it took a lot of men to bring him down, and even then it was a bloody battle. From Stede Bonnet to Calico Jack, this book brings you the bios of some of the most infamous/famous pirates ever.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very good general overview of pirates
Review: This is a good book for those interested in learning a little about several different pirates. There is not a lot of detailed info but it is a good book to have to figure out which pirates you would like to read more about. It gives some of the major incidents in the lives of the pirates.

If you are looking for detailing information on a specific pirate, this is not your book. But for those just starting to take an interest, I recommend it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Not too shabby
Review: while other customers mock this book's lack of research, this is what i say to them: lighten up. yes, it is a non fiction and should be accurate but nontheless it is still interesting. i would recommend this book to whoever is interested in piracy. it displays the brutness and darker sides of piracy. it was interesting
