5.0 out of 5 stars Captivating read, 6 Oct 2006
By M. Belcher (Lund, Sweden) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I brought this on the off chance for a quick read up on pirates and this was exactly what I wanted and more. The book is very well written and resulted in some late nights, as I just had to finish "one more chapter." Its a good mixture of captivating read and lots of facts and historical data. Whilst it focuses on just one pirate (Cpt Kidd) it brings in lots of contempories and historical context.

An ideal book to gem up on a few pirate facts and stories. Perfect for impressing one's children with!
