4-6Pirates series.
Unlike some other books that sensationalize pirates, this series is filled with actual history, geography, and politics. It shares interesting facts and details about individual pirates, the times in which they flourished, and bits and pieces about their daily lives. The cleanly designed pages include many paintings and sketches (though the few staged photos and movie stills are gratuitous). Glos., ind. Review covers these Pirates titles: A History of Pirates, A Pirate's Life, Bartholomew Roberts, Blackbeard, Captain Kidd, and Henry Morgan.
