Home E-Mail Download Lessons Interactive Quiz ... South America The Pirates The beginning of the colonial era in the Caribbean was also known as the “Golden Age of Piracy.” The Caribbean Sea was thousands of miles from European control, making the region a prime target for pirates who patrolled the seas in order to steal. The Europeans monarchs could not afford to send their naval forces to the Caribbean, so they instead issued “letters of marque” that allowed the owners of private ships to attack ships from rival nations. These ship captains were known as privateers, legal pirates who turned over a portion of what they seized to the government that sponsored them. One of the most famous privateers was Sir Francis Drake, who sailed for England while England was at war with Spain. Drake not only raided ships, he also attacked Spanish towns and mule trains carrying gold. Drake was not an outlaw, at least in England. Queen Elizabeth I chose him to be the second person after Magellan to lead a sailing expedition around the world. Shortly after Drake completed his journey in 1580, Elizabeth addressed him as “my dear pirate,” and over the objections of the Spanish, she knighted him. English and French pioneers began to settle on the island of Hispañola around 1630. They became known as buccaneers because they cooked their food on open fires known as buccans. The Spanish believed they could force the buccaneers to leave by removing their food supply, so they sent hunters to slaughter the wild pigs that were the buccaneer’s primary source of food. With the pigs gone, many buccaneers turned to piracy in order to survive. Many buccaneers moved to the island of Tortuga, off the coast of Hispañola, because its fresh waters, fertile ground, good anchorages, and defensible harbors made it ideal for their needs.

68. When The War Ended In 1713, Many Former Privateers Became Pirates, And When the war ended in 1713, many former privateers became pirates, and it was not Beef Island was reputed to be the haunt of renegades and buccaneers, http://www.windsurfing.vi/pirates.htm

When the war ended in 1713, many former privateers became pirates, and it was not long before Sam and his mate Paul Williams decided to 'go on the account'. They were taken aboard the sloop by Captain Leboose, who was cruising the Caribbean for prey, in company with the well-known pirate Ben Hornigold in the 10 gun sloop Mary Anne. By May of 1716, Black Sam had become an elected officer of the Postillion. He made a dashing figure in his long deep-cuffed velvet coat, knee breeches, silk stockings, and silver-buckled shoes; with a sword slung on his left hip and four pistols in his sash. Unlike some of his fellows, Bellamy never wore the fashionable powdered wig, but grew his dark hair long and tied it back with a black satin bow. The new pirate gang was soon capturing ships and crews. Leboose took a seaman named John Brown off an English vessel and this man became friendly with Black Sam, and seemed to bring good luck to him. Hornigold suddenly decided to retire, and his 90 man crew made Bellamy captain of the Mary Anne. Bellamy and Leboose set off for St. Thomas to provision and make enquiries about a secluded place where they could careen their weed-grown ships. Beef Island was reputed to be the haunt of renegades and buccaneers, and when Bellamy realised that the deputy Governor of Tortola was Captain Hall, an old privateering acquaintance from Port Royal and a well-known desperado to boot, he lost no time in sailing up to Trellis Bay where Hall was living at that time.

I have also provided links to Amazon.com (for the books that they list) if you are interested in acquiring the books. The Avalon Hill General Buccaneers and Pirates of Our Coasts Buccaneers of America , John Exquemelin, © 1? - one of the definitive writings on the subject of pirates in the Caribbean Area during the Golden Age of Piracy. The author obtained his stories firsthand as a crewman on pirate ships of the time. Buccaneers 1620-1700 (Elite Series, 69) , Angus Konstam, © 2000 - short and sweet, only 63 pages, covers a variety of topics relating to buccaneers, their life and times. Captain Kidd , Robert Ritchie, © 1986 - biography of William Kidd and reference on the prevailing attitudes toward pirates and privateers at the turn of the 18th century. , Microsoft - encyclopedic entries, very limited in nature Francis Drake : The Lives of a Hero , John Cummins, © 1995 - still reading A General History of the Robberies and Murders of the Most Notorious Pirates , Captain Charles Johnson, © 1724 - content wise this and the next are very close, the differences seem to be more a matter of what the publisher chose to include or exclude from the original.

Famous pirates, privateers, and pirate history Famous pirates, privateers, and pirate history: Hollywood portrays pirates in a romantic light when they were actually far from civilized individuals. For centuries piracy was a given hazard of any sea voyage. It didn’t matter where the traveler was going to or from or even what the cargo, if any was being carried. Private vessels, merchant ships, sloops of various size and even the giant naval Man o’ Wars were fair game. Sir Francis Drake Some pirates or “privateers” such as Sir Francis Drake preyed upon ships of a certain nationality. Drake had a private hatred of Spain but a fervent sense of patriotism to England and was known to fly the English flag during his attacks upon Spanish ships. He also became the first Englishmen to circumnavigate the globe in his ship, the Golden Hind. Drake was born sometime between 1538 and 1542 near Devonshire, England and died at sea on January 28, 1596 after leading a successful raid against a Spanish stronghold in the West Indies. Henry Morgan Blackbeard Blackbeard was a pirate in the true sense of the word. Born Edward Drummond in 1680, he earned his nickname by letting his jet-black beard grow as long as possible. He preyed mostly upon the coastline of North America and the Bahamas. He met his end in hand-to-hand combat against forces led by Lieutenant Robert Maynard on November 22, 1718 after receiving a king’s pardon at Ocracoke, Island.

We are all safe back in port and reflecting on the joys and amusements of our colorful Buccaneers' Ball and its cast of interesting characters. You were a splendid crew of captains and seadogs, freebooters and swashbucklers, corsairs, pirates, buccaneers ... and the occasional innocent bystander. The Wonderful Spencer File was without peer in regards to his splendid and fashionable crew of French female buccaneers but many of ye made fine and astonishing individual seafaring characters from the Spanish Main. We met the Flying Dutchman, Abdul Aziz el Ali The Magnificent, Jamaica Kate, Cuba Kate, "Capin" Jack Blackhat, Cap'n Jack Sparrow, the ggggggggrandson of Edward Teach, Dread Pyrate Roberts, an illiterate Portagee and a host of other interesting personalities. Perhaps the strangest was Capitaine File's first mate "One-eyed Jack" who in the midst of the Ball suddenly made an appearance as "Two-eyed Jack." It seems he had lost the eye years before in a seafight but was able to barter it back from someone who had traded for it in a Jamaican bazaar. Weird.
