Description
Redbeard the Pirate is a satirical story about the former sailors and officers of a moth-balled WW II destroyer who become bored with their post-war lives and who, on one dark night, steal their old ship and put to sea to become modern day gentleman pirates. There are many exciting adventures, action and comedy at every turn of the page. These men soon establish a nation on an island in the South Pacific, and are admitted to the United Nations to become a new force in world affairs. But the Navy is looking for them and wants their ship back. The problem is dealt with in a very surprising turn of events.
