Produktbeschreibung
The early seventeen hundreds was a time of profound change in the world. A period when the American Colonies were just beginning. The time when the Caribbean pirates had reached their peak. Blackbeard's story only lasted about three years but through his exploits, his fame continues to grow today. Advancing technology allowed the great full-rigged ships to ply the oceans of the world and the creation of the world's greatest maritime power-England. The treatment of people and sailors, in particular, had not progressed beyond that of medieval times, when the lives of peasants had little value. This is the story about those men. Men who lived aboard those magnificent sailing ships. We see their weakness and their strengths, their joys and their deaths. The harshness of their lives is often forgotten today. The adventure is seen through the unlikely eyes of a twelve-year-old stowaway.
