No Requiem for a Dead Pirate

Más información sobre el libro

In 1721, the notorious pirate Anne Bonny was sentenced to death, but managed a stay of execution by 'pleading her belly'. History loses track of her, and her unborn child, there. In No Requiem For A Dead Pirat e, Martha Bertrand speculates on what may have become of her and her child after the history books lost interest. The world of Nassau in the eighteenth century is brought to life as Anne Bonny fights to carve out a space for her and her child in a man's world. Can she succeed, or will she die trying?
