Product Description
Anyone who loves a good story full of excitement, adventure, thrills, and laughs will find this massive collection (more than 800 pages!) irresistible.  Over the years, thousands of tales both true and fantastic have been told about the dastardly thievery of pirates, and their rum-drunk exploits and high-seas violence never fail to delight. Compiled here are more than 100 of the very best pirate yarns ever created on history’s most debaucherous scalawags. The stories, songs, and verses include writing by Daniel Defoe, Mark Twain, Joseph Conrad, James Fenimore Cooper, Robert Louis Stevenson, and many more. This is 800 pages of true treasure!


About the Author
Steven Brennan has worked as a circus clown, book editor, teacher, cabaret artist, actor, director, shepherd, and playwright. He lives in New York, New York, and Woodstock, New York.

5.0 out of 5 stars Arrrrrrrrrr you looking for a great pirate book? Get this!, December 19, 2007
By Floyd Jackson (Oklahoma City, OK) - See all my reviews
Forget about Captain Jack, these are the Pirate stories that you should be reading about. This book is filled with adventure, thrills, chills, laughs, and great storytelling. Mark Twain and Joesph Conrad are two of the greats here, but none of the stories disappoint.
