from Penguin (Non-Classics)
Price: $2.44

Customer Review:
I came to this book as a fan of Melville's 'Moby Dick', having recently re-read it and wanting more.

Customer Review:
This book produces what it promised ... an analysis of pirate behaviours and practices from a fairly pure economic perspective.

Customer Review:
Just as there is no perfect knot, there is no perfect knot book. All have deficiencies of one sort or another.
