Stories of pirates, fearless and ruthless sea robbers, are shrouded in an aura of romance. Countless books have been written about their adventures, and the word "pirate" easily conjures up a few movie characters.

Yet hundreds of years before the first pirate appeared in literature, much less on movie screens, real-life sea robbers bravely plied the vast expanses of the seas and oceans.
Edward Teach, nicknamed Blackbeard, Francis Drake and Henry Morgan, the menacing grin of the Jolly Roger and boarding battles, treasure maps and treasure hunts on distant shores... What we know about the real lives of pirates is revealed in the fascinating stories of historian Igor Vsevolodovich Mozheiko, known to all of us by his pen name, Kir Bulychev.
