"Discovering Pirates" is an authoritative book about pirates for
7-11 year olds. It focuses on the golden age of piracy when
notorious figures such as Blackbeard and Captain Kidd plundered
treasure ships in the Spanish Main.In 13 superbly illustrated
sections, the book looks at all aspects of piracy, from who the
pirates were and what they did, to their ships and weapons, their
lore and language, their way of life, the way they shared and spent
their booty, how they treated their hapless victims (by making them
walk the plank for example), and the fate that awaited them if they
were unlucky enough to be captured by the Royal Navy.Red Kite
