The Black Buccaneer (Historical Fiction for Teens: Illustrated Edition): The Pirate Adventures of a Colonial Boy from Maine
by Stephen Meader
From renowned American author, Stephen Meader, an exciting historical novel for readers age 11 and older, enhanced with:
Over 36 period illustrations by artists such as Howard Pyle, N.C. Wyeth, Frederic Edwin Church, and Hermann Herzog.
Period maps of Maine and the New England coast line.
A terrific "Want to Know More?" section loaded with links to further explore colonial New England and piratical doings, including the latest development in the search for Captain Henry Morgan's ship and pirate treasure buried in Maine!
Stephen Meader brings to life the daring adventures of Jeremy Swan, the fourteen year old son of a sheep farmer living in pre-Revolution Maine – that is, until his island home is plundered by pirates and Jeremy is taken captive. Once aboard the Revenge, Jeremy must use his keen senses to stay alive and stay out of the grips of the evil Pharaoh Daggs, who wants nothing more than to see Jeremy keelhauled. But what is Pharaoh Daggs hiding in his trunk? Jeremy and his fellow young captive Bob Curtis are eager to find out, but first they must escape the clutches of the pirate ship. With the help of the deserter pirate Job Howland, the boys find themselves free from the Revenge, but embroiled in a fierce battle between pirate and colonist, one that will ultimately decide who rules the sea – and who finds whatever Pharaoh Daggs is hiding.
