(Pirate & Maritime Research Society, March 15, 2014)
Henry Morgan makes the list when America's favorite pirate enthusiast, Pat Croce, shares his "Top Three Pirates". There has never been a pirate, privateer, or buccaneer who has successfully led an army of ruthless cutthroats through so many impossible situations and come away with fame, fortune, and a knighthood. Croce brings Morgan's daring adventures to life, from navigating his buccaneers across thousands of miles, making alliances with friendly Indians, strategically plundering Spanish cities, escaping capture, imprisonment, and the hangman's noose, to realizing his dream of returning home to the pirate capital, Port Royal, Jamaica.
