“Cyrus Townsend Brady has had the hardihood to set aside the romantic pirate of fictional tradition and paint a genuine historic pirate; lustful, murderous, brutal, relentless. The story has force and dramatic interest.”––The Lamp.
“Mr. Brady has never before been so successful in creating a character who so completely fills the scene. Morgan dominates the book from the first line to the last.”––Philadelphia Item.
“The story is a fascinating one––a concentration of all the pirate stories that ever were written.”––Rochester Herald.
“Mr. Brady has a graphic and realistic power of description. The novel is full measure and running over with thrills.”––Brooklyn Eagle.
“A thrilling pirate story, a lively romance sufficiently sensational yet not lacking in delicacy.”––Boston Transcript.
“The story is full of incident and has an appropriate measure of love and sword play.”––N. Y. Times.
“It is as rakish and dashing a craft on seas literary as any of the hero’s black-flagged ships on seas actual.”––N. Y. World.
“There is ‘hot stuff’ in Sir Henry Morgan––Buccaneer.”––N. Y. Evening Sun.
“The interest of the action, pitched high in the beginning, is held to the point of utmost tension throughout.”––St. Louis Star.
Profusely and beautifully illustrated from paintings by J. N. Marchand
and drawings by Will Crawford. Cloth-bound, $1.50.
