Written in 1934, Shay based his work of the life of famed pirate
Mary Read on the available histories. In this delightful novel she
is depicted as a fetching pirate wench who roams the Romantic
Carribees, despoiling shipping and taking lovers. Read lived
disguised as a boy by her mother, from an early age, as an adult
she proved herself in the military, and aboard ships. When a West
Indies bound ship that she was on was taken by pirates, she was
forced her to join them. In 1720 she joined pirate John "Calico
Jack" Rackham and his companion, the female pirate Anne Bonny. The
rest as they say, is history.
