The Secret Alliances Between History's Most Notorious Buccaneers
and Colonial America
Was classical piracy an earlier version of state-sponsored
terrorism?
Here's the story of how almost every well-known buccaneer of the
"Golden Age of Piracy" enjoyed active sponsorship from England's
governors in the American colonies- setting a pattern of official
disobedience to the Crown that would ultimately contribute to the
American push for independence. Relying on rare primary sources
discovered in government archives in England, the Carolinas, Rhode
Island, Jamaica, and elsewhere, Burgess combines true tales of
derring-do with groundbreaking research in this fascinating
history.
