Blackbeards Last Fight by Angus Konstam
In April 1713 the War of the Spanish Succession came to an end. During the conflict hundreds of privateers - licenced pirates - preyed on enemy shipping throughout the Caribbean. These privateers now found themselves out of a job, and many turned to piracy. One of theme was Edward Teach - more popularly known as Blackbeard.Angus Konstam is a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society and has written widely on naval history, with well over a hundred books in print.
