Howard Pyle's Book of Pirates is a collection of classic pirate stories written and illustrated by Howard Pyle. The book includes tales of famous pirates such as Blackbeard, Captain Kidd, and Anne Bonny, as well as lesser-known pirates and fictional characters. Each story is accompanied by Pyle's intricate and detailed illustrations, which bring the swashbuckling adventures to life. The book also includes historical context and background information on piracy in the 17th and 18th centuries. This timeless classic is a must-read for anyone interested in pirate lore and adventure.But with Blackbeard'' it is different, for in him we have a real, ranting, raging, roaring pirate per se -- one who really did bury treasure, who made more than one captain walk the plank, and who committed more private murders than he could number on the fingers of both hands; one who fills, and will continue to fill, the place to which he has been assigned for generations, and who may be depended upon to hold his place in the confidence of others for generations to come.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
