Does anyone know any good books about pirates, especially about the golden age pirates?

What is a must read for a beginner in this field?

I have yet to read them but these are the ones I found.

I don't think so, just check amazon or goodreads

They are however pop-history I suppose

>pirate show/movie
>it's the classic treasure Island cast

Why is this genre so unoriginal? Is there literally no other material to work with?

General History is the top tier primary source even though a lot of it is horseshit, it still provides a decent enough account of pirate lives just a few decades after they lived.

"The Republic of Pirates" from Colin Woodard is a pretty solid and reasonably detailed about that lists all the shit starting from Henry Avery to the collapse of Nassau.

>people unironically listing fucking Treasure Island and Michael Crichton
Kill yourselves
