  This title offers readers inside information about the lives of the men and women who forged new frontiers, and who outwitted admirals and navies. In the book the reader can visit a pirate kingdom; learn about life aboard a pirate ship; understand why so many ordinary seafarers turned pirate; discover the dangers facing a cowboy on the trail; find out why life in the Wild West was so wild; and read about crimes of outrageous outlaws. There is also an easy-to-use reference section, glossary and index.
