"Captured by Pirates"

[Fox]

Can anyone help me out by listing the contents of John Robert Stephens' Captured by Pirates, and/or Jon E Lewis' Mammoth Book of Pirates?

Thanks in advance

I will try to remember to dig up Captured By Pirates and scan the title page in for you. If I recall correctly, the majority of the accounts are post-GAoP. I know parts of Snelgrave's account are in there, but he excerpted them in a way that focuses on the sensational aspects. I wouldn't call it a very good source of information, other than as a way to find the original accounts. The editor's notes in the book are nearly useless and the whole thing gave me the idea that it was slapped together to capitalize on the fascination with pirates. (Not unlike the second book of the General History in a way. )

Thanks Mission,

I'm only actually interested in the GAoP stuff so if it's only Snelgrave that might be easier for you to type than scan.

I don't actually plan to use the book, I just want to know what's in it.

For GAOP Stuff in that book, there are exerpts from the following:

Ashton, Philip, and John Barnard. “A History of the Strange Adventures and Signal Deliverances of Mr. Philip Ashton, Jun. of Marblehead [1725].”

Fillmore, John. “A Narrative of the Captivity of John Fillmore and His Escape from the Pirates (1802).” [it was first published in 1802 but is about an experience from the 1720s/]

Roberts, George. “Four Voyages of Capt. George Roberts...written by Himself (1726).”

Snelgrave, William. "A New Account of Some Parts of Guinea and the Slave-Trade [1734]."

I believe the rest of it is post (or possibly pre) GAOP stuff, I just scanned these things out of it when I had it.
