The Amazing World of Pirates
by Philip Steele, David Cordingly, Fiona MacDonald, and Karl P. N. Shuker
Published 31 October 2003
This series is both fun and educational, with projects to intensify the learning experience. Step-by-step photographs ensure that children can carry out the projects by themselves, or with limited supervision. Stirring fact-packed text and a useful timeline and glossary make the series a useful supplement to schoolwork, or as additional learning tool at home. Take a look back at what it was like to be a pirate; find out who they were and how they lived, and learn of their swashbuckling adventures. If you dare, come face-to-face with Blackbeard and Anne Bonny. Practical piratical projects show you how to make a treasure chest, fashion a cutlass and dress like a pirate captain.
