Book
Pirate Enlightenment, or, The real Libertalia / David Graeber.
Pirates have long lived in the realm of romance and fantasy, symbolizing risk, lawlessness, and radical visions of freedom. But at the root of this mythology is a rich history of pirate societies - vibrant, imaginative experiments in self-governance and alternative social formations at the edges of European empire.
