There Be Pirates!: Swashbucklers & Rogues of the Atlantic (Compass series)

By Joann Hamilton-Barry. 2018

DAISY audio (CD), DAISY audio (Direct to player), DAISY audio (Zip)
History, Canadian history
Human-narrated audio

Did you know pirates once sailed the seas around Atlantic Canada? Pirates might seem like fun in the movies, but…

back in the 17th and 18th centuries—the Golden Age of Piracy—being a pirate was very serious business. From the Hackmatack award-shortlisted author of Oak Island and the Search for Buried Treasure comes the newest book from Nimbus's popular Compass series for young readers. Learn about what everyday life was like for some of the fiercest pirates of all time. Explore the history of piracy, from the ancient Romans and Greeks to modern-day pirates. How did pirates navigate the seas? What happened if they were caught? Did pirates really bury treasure? This full-colour non-fiction book includes highlighted glossary terms, informative sidebars, over 50 colour illustrations and historical photographs, an index, and recommended further reading.
