PIRATE HUNTERS: TREASURE, OBSESSION AND THE SEARCH FOR A LEGENDARY PIRATE SHIP

By Robert Kurson. New York: Random House, 2015.


Yet another one of the great reads to be found.


This book tells the true story of two treasure hunters who take up the search for the Golden Fleece, the merchant navy vessel turned pirate ship of the selfsame fated Captain Joseph Bannister. The two men consult the scant primary sources, use their modern equipment and even talk to locals in their quest.


In addition to being a thrilling read, I also liked the backstories of both men and how this book really showed the way guys are when they're together.


Purchase it here.
