Borrowing Foxe's thunder, anyone up for a second installment?

Plot line: Authenticity in tales by those that lived the life. "Did that really happen?"

Mayhaps some standards that are in (or should be) your library, (click on the titles for links to Amazon):

The Pirates Own Book: Authentic Narratives of the Most Celebrated Sea Robbers by the Maritime Research Society

-a good portion is rewritten from Captain Charles Johnson's A General History of Pirates.

So, therefore, you can substitute:

A General History of the Robberies and Murders of the Most Notorious Pirates by Captain Charles Johnson

Read the above in conjunction with:

The Buccaneers of America by Alexander O. Exquemelin

Give it 2 months or so? Late May for discussion?

"We are 21st Century people who play a game of dress-up and who spend a lot of time pissing and moaning about the rules of the game and whether other people are playing fair."

Count me in, as I have bought both the Exquemeling and Johnson book over the last few weeks and just finished my last peice of fluff reading and was about to delve into those two books.
