"I presume we need make no Apology for presenting the Name of a brief history to the following Linens, though they contain only the Actions of the Parcel of Robbers."

This work is the best source for the biographies of many well-known pirates of that era and molded the popular notions about pirates of the day. Included are Blackbeard, Black colored Bart, Jolly Roger, Anne Bonny (aka Anne Bonn), Edward Show, Henry Avery, Mary Read, and many more.
