Book Synopsis Captain Kidd and His Skeleton Island: the Discovery of a Strange Secret Hidden for Centuries by : Harold Wilkins
Download or read book Captain Kidd and His Skeleton Island: the Discovery of a Strange Secret Hidden for Centuries written by Harold Wilkins and published by . This book was released on 2017-08-17 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lord Birkenhead expressed the opinion that Captain William Kidd had "a scrupulously fair" trial when he was indicted at the Old Bailey for murder and piracy. From diligent research, the author of this book, Harold T. Wilkins, is able to show that the exact reverse was the case - that the Captain Kidd was railroaded to the gallows. Documents vital to Kidd's defense were withheld, he was refused the aid of counsel, and he was made the scapegoat for certain Whig politicians who were interested in cashing in on his privateering ventures. Wilkins presents papers and documents hitherto unknown to the public. The Captain's own charts, retrieved from their ingenious hiding places, are published for the first time. Someday, these manuscripts may aid in the recovery of actual treasure by those who can decipher the symbols.

"My name is Captain Kidd, who has sailed, who has sailed,My name is Captain Kidd, who has sailed.My name is Captain Kidd;What the laws did still forbidUnluckily I did while I sailed, while I sailed." - A verse from Captain Kidd's Farewell to the Seas The people who have lived outside the boundaries of normal societies and refused to play by the rules have long fascinated the world, and nowhere is this more evident than the continuing interest in the pirates of centuries past. As the subjects of books, movies, and even theme park rides, people continue to let their imaginations go when it comes to pirates, with buried treasure, parrots, and walking the plank all ingrained in pop culture's perception of them. Charles River Editors' Legendary Pirates series covers the lives, piracy, legends, myths, and legacies of history's most famous pirates. There are a number of famous pirates in history, but one of them may not have been a pirate at all. Captain William Kidd has been remembered for over 300 years as a pirate and his name is synonymous with piracy today, but he was far from the most bloodthirsty or most prosperous because he insisted he wasn't one at all. In fact, Kidd's entire reputation is based on the most notorious trial in the history of piracy. Like many pirates, Kidd got his start by being an English privateer assigned to fight the French, and later he was ironically asked to attack pirates around the English colonies of New Hampshire and New York. Kidd established some connections with powerful people in the New World, affording him the luxury of a large ship with which to capture pirates, but he would become notorious and controversial for killing one of his own crew members in 1697. When Kidd found himself at odds with the Royal Navy over the impressment of his crew, charges of piracy were lobbed at him, and by 1698 he was a wanted man. Aware of what would happen if he was caught, Kidd was tricked into coming to Boston by an investor in his expedition who betrayed him and had him arrested. In addition to being personally questioned by Parliament, Kidd's trial became a political football between the Whigs and Tories, and ultimately it produced a controversial conviction and execution of the notorious captain in 1701. Historians and scholars have been debating whether Kidd was a pirate or murderer ever since. Legendary Pirates: The Life and Legacy of Captain William Kidd looks at the controversial life and career of the infamous captain, attempting to separate fact from fiction while analyzing his lasting legacy. Along with pictures depicting important people, places, and events in his life, you will learn about Kidd like you never have before, in no time at all.
