Pirates of the Carolinas

[Captain Smollett]

Taped this show off PBS Thursday night and watched it yesterday as part of my daughter's "schoolwork."  Pretty good stuff with strong historical and archeological underpinning.  The focus was mainly on Teach, Stede Bonnet, Calico Jack Rackham, Mary Reade and Ann Bonny.

One thing I found very interesting - my duaghter got a book about pirates for Christmas (her request,,, hehe), and while we were watching this show, she recognized many of the stills shots from artwork also depicted in that book.   :)
