Taschen | Pirate Tales

Throughout the centuries, our culture has been enriched with a plethora of renowned real and fictional characters showcased in literature and art. Pirate Tales presents a treasure trove of excerpts from literary works inspired by the notorious pirates of the 16th and 17th centuries. This novel captures all the elements of pirate mythology - shipwrecks, mutinies, uncharted islands, and talking parrots - and has influenced countless other adventure stories. Alongside these literary works are original illustrations from the "Golden Age" of the late 19th and early 20th century, including artwork by Michael Custode.
