Most Read This Week In Pirates

Fiction or non-fiction books involving pirates, those who engage in acts of robbery or criminal violence at sea. A sub-genre of the Maritime and Adventure genres.

Piracy has existed from ancient times to the modern day, but much literature focuses on the "Golden Age of Piracy" from about the 1650s to the 1730s. Many of the common tropes in the pirate genre originate in "A General History of the Robberies and Murders of the Most Notorious Pirates" (1724) by Charles Johnson and "Treasure Island" (1883) by Robert Louis Stevenson.
