THE HISTORY OF PIRACY by Philip Gosse. First published in 1932, the material required for such a record as contained in this book compelled the author to cast his net far and wide and in many of the by-waters of history and literature. How piracy came to be, and when, and who the pirates were, whence they came, and when they departed from the nautical scene. Excellent annotated index, 16 full page engravings, 349 pages, soft cover.
