Wonderful factual account pieced together through great research by the author. Captain Kidd was actually an unsung hero demonized by those covering their own misdeeds. I hope that this is what is now taught in History - not the lies.

I am inclined to favor books about pirates and the sea, and have read quite a few. But I must say, this book about the history of Captain Kidd is truly excellent. I was wrapped up in it after a few pages and found it hard to put down. The author's use of imagery make the book easy to picture in mind; the writing is clear and virtually effortless to read. A great book!
It is a hard read unless you are very interested in history. There are several twist and turns in the writing but if you want the real history of privateers and pirates this is the book.
