    Our final tale from Piracy's Golden Age begins in West Africa, 1721. George Lowther is a fiery young merchant officer serving in the Royal African Company.

    Spectacle of Sin 1: Cotton Mather

    It’s 1726 and the end of the Golden Age of piracy may be at hand — but the terror that plagues the Atlantic is still a public obsession, and Boston is no exception. For two decades the firebrand cleric, Dr. Cotton Mather, has waged a desperate war to save these lost souls and to reclaim a city that is losing its religion — a one-man crusade to stem the flow of seafarers sailing under the black flag. But now he meets his match... With piracy in its death throes, one last villain is spewed out from the sea: the irredeemable, the impenitent, William Fly. Learn more about your ad choices.
