The Everything Pirates Book: A Swashbuckling History of Adventure on the High Seas

This book has such an easy-to-read format that it really could appeal to almost any age. The breadth of topics covered is amazing, and the illustrations are fantastic. I highly recommend this book! (And I can't wait for the vampire book to come out.)

Another great "Everything" book! I had very little knowledge or interest in pirate lore; however, with the current cultural obsession of pirateology abounding in the U.S., I thought I should get with the program. This book makes learning the ins and outs of pirate history and myth extremely interesting and entertaining. Well-written and well-organized, "The Everything Pirates Book" is a must-read if you are interested in pirates-- fact or fiction! Well done, Ms. Spaite and Ms. Karg!
