The Pirateology Handbook
This is a complete handbook, for a boy who wants to be a pirate hunter. The book is setup like a ships log or diary, with a hard cover and a wire binding.
Captain William Lubber gives details on his mate's jobs aboard a ship, from cabin boy all the way up to captain.
Captain Lubber tells the boy everything he needs to know, from memorizing the flags of different pirate ships, to how to recognize the ship bells. He tells the cabin boy: four bells is six o'clock in the morning, and time for a cabin boy to report to duty.
At the end of every chapter, the captain gives an assignment: copy the map and learn the main islands, or, learn the knots needed on board a pirate ship. A cabin boy will also learn the parts of the ship.
The office of Cabin Boy, Able Seaman, The office of Bo'sun, and the rank of Captain are all outlined. Until a boy reaches the office of Able Seaman, he is not entitled to any of the treasure, taken by a pirate ship. Captain Lubbor outlines the pay scale on a pirate ship and lets a boy know that there are no slackers.
This is great book for any boy who is interested in pirates. He will learn about notorious pirates along the way, and how they met their fate. He will also learn about famous pirate ships, and where they sailed.
