Description

A comprehensive account of piracy's Golden Age, as recorded by Captain Charles Johnson in his General History of Pirates. First published in 1724, this book has become the definitive study of its subject, with four editions released within two years of its initial publication.

Johnson's work is notable for its vivid portrayal of pirate life and its use of documentary evidence to support its claims. This edition features a facsimile reprint of the original text, allowing readers to experience the book in its earliest form.

With over 270 years since its initial publication, Johnson's General History of Pirates remains an essential read for anyone interested in maritime history and the Golden Age of Piracy.
