Over 2 lbs, with 614 pages of text, tables, and graphs! Do you know
who "Blackbeard the Pirate" was? Probably not! Born into a
substantial family in Bristol, the eldest son of Capt. Edward and
Elizabeth Thache sailed for Jamaica with his family sometime before
1695. Capt. Edward Thache of St. Jago de la Vega or "Spanish Town"
died there at age 47 while his son, Edward "Blackbeard" Thache Jr.
joined the Royal Navy and fought in Queen Anne's War aboard HMS
Windsor. Thache resembled more a Robber Baron of the early 20th
century than a poor downtrodden member of Benjamin Hornigold's
"Flying Gang" in the Bahamas - or even his "pupil." Capt. Charles
Johnson's "A General History of the Pyrates" is a flawed historical
work and much of what we have previously known about Blackbeard is
simply not true. This book attempts to rediscover exactly who
Blackbeard really was...and how he related to his maritime American
"Pirate Nation!" Quite a few surprises are in store! Website:
