Jeremy Moss, author of “The Life and Tryals of the Gentleman Pirate, Major Stede Bonnet” joined “Burgwin-Wright Presents… Outlander in the Cape Fear” last week to talk about all things “Stede Bonnet.”
“Burgwin-Wright Presents… Outlander in the Cape Fear” is a podcast hosted by Hunter Ingram exploring the history of Colonial North Carolina through its depiction in the book and Starz TV series “Outlander.”
Listen below as Jeremy and Hunter mine the many pop culture lives of Stede Bonnet, known as the Gentleman Pirate:
- How did someone with such a non-threatening nickname go on to inspire the vicious Stephen Bonnet on “Outlander” and HBO Max’s new comedy series “Our Flag Means Death.”
- Who was Stede, why did he leave his entire life behind to be a pirate and what happened in his eventful two years on the sea?
This podcast is produced by Burgwin-Wright House and Gardens, Wilmington’s largest and oldest historic site. For more information about the Burgwin-Wright House, visit BurgwinWrightHouse.com.
