Well, I did get to see the History Channel program on 'True Caribbean Pirates'. Now I understand the historical inaccuracies in the RN movie 'Blackbeard'. I believe, if I remember the special last night correctly, that Morgan wasn't even in the same century as Blackbeard and Maynard was sent to kill Blackbeard (which he did). Morgan could have been labeled as a terrorist (by today's definition). Him and his crew were killing machines!
I also found the story of Black Bart interesting. I had heard of him but never knew anything about him. He seemed to be even more ruthless than Blackbeard.
Did anyone else get to see the program?
