Description

In the early twentieth century, Howard Pyle’s paintings defined the classic pirate appearance that persists in the present day. In this book, Pyle presents a collection of his brooding, evocative paintings of pirates and their prey, along with excerpts from two pirate classics: Esquemeling’s The Buccaneers of America and Capt. Charles Johnson’s A General History of the Pyrates. Exotic island locales, raging sea battles and glittering treasure grottoes fill these pages. Full-color reproductions of Pyle’s artwork, classic tales of plunder and villainy, and a long introduction by Pyle make this book a can’t-miss.
