Under the Black Flag



Looking for something fun to do Easter Weekend?? Before Easter baskets and egg hunts, before jelly beans and the big Easter ham for dinner, before church, but after family has arrived for the weekend..... join us for the Peter Pan Party: Pirates & Pixies! Saturday, April 4th, 12 to 3pm! FREE and open to the public!

You can browse our many books on pirates and fairies like Under the Black Flag. For this rousing, revisionist history, the former head of exhibitions at England's National Maritime Museum has combed original documents and records to produce a most authoritative and definitive account of piracy's "Golden Age." As he explodes many accepted myths (i.e. "walking the plank" is pure fiction), Cordingly replaces them with a truth that is more complex and often bloodier. 16 pp. of photos. Maps.
