You know how they dress, how they speak. If you think of the word ‘pirate’, you most probably think of black flags and peg legs, cutlasses and cannon, walking the plank and buried treasure. These stereotypes are familiar and entertaining, but they aren’t the whole truth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOr, perhaps, they were never true at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom their origins and identities to their everyday lives and exploits, Enemies of All is a voyage of discovery that investigates piracy’s incredible, and often unrecognised, impact on history. Socially, economically and politically, pirates moulded European empires as they rose to global power in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. They shaped our modern world and left behind troubling legacies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou will never see pirates in the same way again.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gardners Books Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41400231231623,"sku":"9781803991733","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0357\/3199\/6807\/files\/9781803991733.jpg?v=1714133754","url":"https:\/\/thebookhousebroughtyferry.co.uk\/products\/9781803991733","provider":"The Bookhouse Broughty Ferry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
