![]() *as anyone who's seen my latest IMM would expect, I quite liked that section. ![]() There's enough real history mixed in with quirky pirate lore to entertain most pirate fans, and the design of the book is rather nice and user-friendly, too. There are pictures and illustrations interspersed throughout the text, ranging from movie stills to instructional diagrams to amusing illustrations.Īll told, I think this would make a great gift for boys (especially those who are reluctant readers) and for pirate aficiandos it would also make for a fun quirky coffee table book, and certainly come in handy on International Talk Like a Pirate Day. There are also the less expected tips on things like How to Disguise Your Gender* or How to Cope with Mermaids. ![]() There are the things every pirate should know, like how to climb rigging or properly insult someone ("feculent maggot" being my personal favorite, followed closely by "salty wench"). This was a pretty fun book, mixing real pirate lore and superstition with elements from the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise, in a how-to style.
