Piracy is the second oldest profression in the world, so claims the introduction to this volume, beginning as soon as men learned to truss two logs together. Volume begins with an overview of piracy from the earliest of times and then has chapters on specific pirates such as Thomas Pound, Henry Every, Thomas White, David Williams, John Martel, Charles Vane, The Cuban Pirates, Benito de Soto and many more.
