Henry Every

The youngest pirate aboard Henry Every's well-armed man-o'-war is Rollins Cole, a contemplative sailor who looks up to the captain and recounts their journey in this memoir. As Captain Every employs his destructive agenda upon the high seas and its unfortunate occupants, Rollins fathoms the grim realities of the human condition, violence of piracy, and labyrinthine struggle for manhood. Throughout their infamous quests for wealth and freedom both at sea and on land, the "King of Pirates" and his crew attract the attention of the authorities from all directions and Rollins beholds the true colors of Captain Every's soul.
