Last Friday, January 29, Jeremy presented his book The Life and Tryals of the Gentleman Pirate Major Stede Bonnet as part of the Hampton Roads History lecture series.
Awash with myth-busting history, Jeremy tells the story of some of the real pirates of the Caribbean, sharing accounts of daily life, social issues, natural disasters, political intrigues, bloody battles; and, of course, buried treasure, walking the plank, flying the Jolly Roger, pirate-speak and more, all while weaving in interesting connections to the history of Hampton Roads.
