{"product_id":"pirate-trials-elizabeth-mackey-9781481119863","title":"Pirate Trials: From Privateers to Murderous Villains; Their Dastardly Deeds and Last Words","description":"Some of the most bloodthirsty pirates in the world were brought to justice and held over for trial in Scotland, England and the United States . These trials detail their dastardly deeds with startling testimony of those who were there and lived to be able to testify in person. What happened to the Jane of Gibraltar? Learn how pirates repainted a ship at sea, killed the captain and cook and set a fire in the hold with the rest of the crew to suffocate, all for the purpose of taking over the ship and a valuable cargo of silver dollars and gold. Pirates plundered other ships on the high seas while on the brig Crawford a cunning act of piracy was perpetrated by a veteran pirate leader. He slit his own throat to escape justice while three Spaniards he recruited stood trial with the esteemed Chief Justice John Marshall presiding over the federal court in Richmond, Virginia in 1827, a rare trial. Follow the action in a blow-by blow description of the murder and mayhem right into the courtroom. Over 50,000 people attended one execution of pirates in England making one wonder if anyone was fortunate enough to have the fish and chips concession that day  There are no magic scenes out of sparkling Caribbean waters with Captain Jack Sparrow dueling with a devil, but the genuine evil related in these authentic pirate trials will certainly make your timbers shiver\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Elizabeth Mackey, Ken Rossignol\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1481119869\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781481119863\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/29\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 230\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.51lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.00w x 0.48d","brand":"Elizabeth Mackey","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43935691145471,"sku":"9781481119863","price":15.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_b51bc0ff-31f5-4955-8fc4-02f411295884.jpg?v=1681421279","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/pirate-trials-elizabeth-mackey-9781481119863","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
