"The end of most of the pirates and a large proportion of the
buccaneers was a sudden and violent one, and few of them died in
their beds. Many were killed in battle, numbers of them were
drowned. Not a few drank themselves to death with strong Jamaica
rum, while many of the buccaneers died of malaria and yellow fever
contracted in the jungles of Central America, and most of the
pirates who survived these perils lived only to be hanged." Philip
Gosse's biographical dictionary of "The Pirates' Who's Who"
originally published in 1924. This edition is expanded with an
extensive index for easy reference. A true literary gem.
