Rachel T's Reviews > Born to Be Hanged: The Epic Story of the Gentlemen Pirates Who Raided the South Seas, Rescued a Princess, and Stole a Fortune

Like real life Pirates of the Caribbean! I couldn’t believe that half of this book was real. It was so interesting to learn more about the accounts of these English pirates’ escapades. I loved learning about how narrowly the highlighted pirates in this book escaped impossible odds and how some even came to be pardoned. At times the battle scenes or sea travel went a little over my head and the amount of characters could be hard to keep up with, but I learned a lot. It was a very thorough and well researched story. 3.5 ⭐️ rounded up
