Beschreibung

The Golden Age of Piracy was a time of dark deeds and glittering prizes, where fortune was often found in the most unlikely of places. In this captivating collection, Howard Pyle takes readers beyond the horizon to witness the storied lives of those who sailed beneath the Jolly Roger and those who stood against them. From the orphaned Tom Chist, whose discovery of a buried treasure box changes his destiny, to the chilling mystery of the Ghost of Captain Brand, these tales are steeped in the authentic atmosphere of the high seas. But beneath the excitement of hidden hoards and narrow escapes lies a deeper exploration of human nature. Pyle's "stolen treasures" serve as a backdrop for timeless questions of honesty, greed, and the true value of a man's word. Whether navigating the treacherous Caribbean or the haunted shores of the American colonies, his characters must prove that the greatest riches are those that cannot be stolen: courage and an unshakable sense of right. Adorned with Howard Pyle's own masterful illustrations, this edition brings the rugged world of buccaneers and ghosts to life. It is a stirring invitation to adventure that challenges the imagination and strengthens the spirit. Stolen Treasure is part of a complete collection of Howard Pyle's legendary works, now available in a matching set from Living Book Press.
