This beautifully illustrated book tells the story of remarkable men and women, such as 'Calico Jack' Rackham, Captain Kidd, Anne Bonny and Bartholomew Roberts, who chose a life of derring-do on the open seas over poverty and injustice in the place they were born. Covering every aspect of life under the Jolly Roger, and based on first-hand accounts by pirates and their victims, discover the secrets of how these outlaws and fighting men lived and died - all too often ignominiously at the end of a rope. Broken down into themed sections, topics include pirate attacks, the cramped living conditions aboard their ships, the weapons they used and the code they lived by, plus a section on ruthless modern-day pirates who threaten seafarers today.
