The Pirate by Harold Schechter
4.0
dark informative fast-paced

 This book was included on the Audible Plus catalog. Several of these little short books are included on there, and I am trying to get through them all. I think I have three more left. The book was about an hour and a half. This book was about Albert Hicks, who was a criminal back in the days of the Gangs of New York time. He was arrested for the murder of a ship's crew, but they were concerned that the charges would not stick, as the bodies were never found. They decided to try him on a piracy law, which is how he got his pirate nickname. I thought this was an interesting little book, and I am looking forward to reading the last couple in this Bloodlands series.
