Hanna explores the often overt support of sea marauders in maritime communities from the inception of England's burgeoning empire in the 1570s to its administrative consolidation by the 1740s. Although traditionally depicted as swashbuckling adventurers on the high seas, pirates played a crucial role on land. Far from a hindrance to trade, their enterprises contributed to commercial development and to the economic infrastructure of port towns."--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aPublished for the Omohundro Institute of Early American History and Culture, Williamsburg, Virginia 606 $aPirates$zGreat Britain$xHistory 606 $aPiracy$zGreat Britain$xColonies$xHistory 606 $aPiracy$zGreat Britain$xHistory 607 $aGreat Britain$xHistory$yStuarts, 1603-1714 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPirates$xHistory. 615 0$aPiracy$xColonies$xHistory. 615 0$aPiracy$xHistory. 676 $a910.4/5 700 $aHanna$b Mark G.$f1974-$01041228 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910460831703321 996 $aPirate Nests and the Rise of the British Empire, 1570-1740$92464600 997 $aUNINA
