Pirate Hunters: Treasure, Obsession, and the Search for a Legendary Pirate Ship

A story so gripping, you'd hate putting it down! The story unfolds from one peak to the next taking us on a journey so fantastic that after this story, who needs fiction?The chapter organisation is excellent so you can have the breaks you need at the appropriate places.

I just couldn’t stop reading this book. Just so amazing what these guys did and it’s all true! It’s a thrill ride into pirate history and I don’t even know what else to say. Just read it!

Diving and history of pirates

Like it very much!

Wonderfully written book...kept me interested until the very end including the acknowledgments. Some reviewers stated that the story could have been written in a shorter space - but I disagree. Information about the divers, their history as well as history about pirates, the Golden Age of Piracy, and in particular about the pirate Bannister made the whole book for me. A thrilling read and a must buy!

nice to reading in the shadow of parasol or sunbathing on the beach during summer vacations in Italy /Tuscany/Viareggio& Versilia.

I felt quite compelled to write a review on this book, my first Amazon review of anything.I read a lot as a youngster, but lost my way with reading books for nearly 20 years. Now at 35 I picked up this book because it featured one of my favourite subjects: Pirates! The fact that it is a work of truth and real history combined with a modern day treasure hunt, and the premise had me hooked immediately.It was the first book in 20 years I just couldn't put down. I powered through it in a couple of days and absolutely loved it. The history was fascinating and the modern day obstacles the guys faced was almost pirate-esque in itself. I cannot speak more highly of how much I enjoyed reading it.Only problem is now, it isn't like a crime thriller where you can just pick up or try another from the genre, it is so specific I don't know where I could find another book of its kind, especially not concerning pirates ;) If anyone has any recommendations for any further reading, please let me know!
