Summary: Set sail on the seven seas with this book about the most fearsome pirates the world has ever seen from Katie Nelson and Olivia Meikle. In this collection of daring deeds and awesome adventures from history prepare to be flabbergasted by: - The time Julius Caesar was kidnapped by pirates - Ching Shih, the Chinese woman who was the most successful pirate of all time - The Russian river pirates who lay siege to medieval towns! Tales of Pirates includes sagas of famous pirates like Blackbeard, Ching Shih and Francis Drake, as well as stories of buccaneers you might not have heard of, such as Grace O'Malley, who went to sea disguised as a boy and Sayyida al Hurra, a Moroccan queen turned privateer. Alongside the gripping stories you'll also learn about pieces of eight, different pirate flags, and even spend some time in Nassau in the Caribbean, the short-lived capital of the Republic of Pirates! You'd better read it, or you'll be walking the plank.
