New York, NY: Thunder's Mouth Press, 2006. — 192 p. — ISBN: 1560258853.For ten years during the early eighteenth century, the Caribbean was terrorized by a host of ruthless pirates who, more than at any other time, seized ships and cargoes at will and severed trade links that were the life-blood of a fledgling empire.
But of all the thieves and thugs active during the so-called Golden Age of Piracy (1716-26), few were more fearsome than Edward Thatch, the 'cruel hardened villain' known as Blackbeard.
