A breaknake adventure of war, romance and politics in the golden age of piracy.
Captain William Kid stands as one of the most notorious “pirate” bandits ever, but his legend is fired from a bed of lies. For more than three hundred years, fascinating fantasies and inspiring many stories about pirates, harassing questions remain. Is he really a criminal or is that truth more inconvenient: that he was the worst dream of a bouquer, a revered pirate hunter fell to the politicians to plan?
In Captain Kid, his ninth-granddaughter, Bestseling writer Samuel Markwis, reveals the real story. Kid was an English American privateer and head of New York husband and father. The king of England described the kids as “reliable and well—been”, and some historians described him as “worthy, honest-dil, firm, too much sailor”, which was “a intentional journey of justice”. With honor, more respected than any other C rover at the turn of manicing blackbird, or seventeenth century, how can both the hero and the villain both gentlemen and pirates be considered?
Marks’ biography rebuilt the dangerous world of explosive naval war kids and followed the courageous integrity as a pirate hunter, as well as political scams that entangled the kids in British -American history, shaking the new world and the old, and threatened the valuable trade of England.
Captain Kid is both thrilling and tragic. There is a real person behind the legend that is woven into the Tapestry of early America, which makes him a unique colonial hero and a goat of sacrifice, whose life story was attractive, exciting, bizarre and charming.
