Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Lester, David (illustrator). Paperback. Featuring an African American fugitive from bondage, an undercover woman, and outcasts of all nations, an arresting graphic exploration of the resistance and radical vision of 18th-century piratesA tale of mutiny, bloody battle, and social revolution, Under the Banner of King Death novelizes for the first time the real pirates, an itinerant community of outsiders, behind our legends. This graphic novel breaks new ground in our understanding of piracy and pirate culture, giving us more reasons to love the rebellious and stouthearted marauders of the high seas.Set at the pinnacle of the Golden Age of Atlantic piracy, this novel follows three unlikely companions, who are sold into servitude on a merchant ship and unwittingly thrust into a voyage of rebellion.They are: John Gwin, an African American fugitive from bondage in South CarolinaRuben Dekker, a common seaman from AmsterdamMark/Mary Reed, an American woman who defies stereotypes by dressing as a man.Mutiny ensues against the tyrannical Captain Skinner, who is thrown overboard to make way for democracy aboard The Night Rambler. The crews new order provides radical social benefits, all based on real, documented practices of contemporary pirate ships: democratic decision-making, a social security net, health and disability insurance, and equal distribution of spoils taken from prize ships.Its not long before the London elites enlist a war-hungry captain to take down The Night Rambler and start a war of high society versus high-seas pirates. Adapted from the scholarship and research of historian Marcus Rediker, Under the Banner of King Death will inspire readers with its tale of those on the bottom fighting back and achieving, against all odds, a democratic and egalitarian social order, if only for a short time. "Under the Banner of King Death explores the sub-culture and resistance of eighteenth-century pirates, telling the tales of John Gwin, an African American fugitive from bondage in South Carolina; Ruben Dekker, a common seaman from Amsterdam; and Mark/Mary Reed, an American woman who dressed as a man and went to sea"-- Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
