About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Buccaneers and Pirates of Our Coasts (version 2) Buccaneers and Pirates of our Coasts is a non-fiction, rolicking story of the origins of piracy and of the famous pirates of the coasts of the United States. The stories don't cast pirates in the glowing light of modern day renditions - in Stockton's stories, pirates are bad guys! - but the dramatic style makes them good fun to read, anyway! (Summary by Sibella Denton)
