Delos - reviewed on 5/6/2007

Helpful Score: 3

I was so excited to finally find this book on a shelf to buy (go figure, I had to wait to find a pirate bookstore to find it - yeah, there is one, in Key West) and it did not disappoint. Ive had it on my Wish List here since it was recommended by The Word Detective.

It is so interesting, you won't be able to resist reading the fascinating tidbits out loud to your poor roommate, who now knows more about pirates than he ever wanted to. I had no idea that our idea of pirates is based on only a few fictional sources. This has many great examples of reality being more interesting than fiction.
