Once the scourge of the high seas and harbor towns, pirates and their infamous activities still thrill young and old alike. The 30 finely detailed illustrations in this exciting coloring book depict the daring deeds of five swashbuckling renegades and their cohorts: Edward Teach, also known as Blackbeard; Anne Bonny and Mary Read, notorious for victimizing ships and their passengers in the Caribbean; William Kidd, tried for his crimes and executed in England; and Henry Morgan, who, amazingly, achieved riches, fame, and success near the end of his life. Fact-filled captions accompany illustrations that recapture the lives of these famed maritime marauders.
