Pirates: Truth and Tales

Pirates: Truth and Tales

by Helen Hollick Author

Pirates are such a fantastical bunch, since their history is often combined with legend, making them appear pseudo-mythical. In Helen Hollick's book, Pirates, she uses facts and legends to write this piece of historical fiction. While she creates original characters to take part in her narrative, she also includes notable people and events very much rooted in reality. Hold onto your bootstraps as you not only enjoy Helen's engaging story, but also inadvertently learn a thing or two about pirates along the way. With a long career in writing (and noted as a USA Today bestseller), Helen brings her love for and experience with historical fiction to this nautical tale.
