"A very famous pirate of his day was Captain Robertson Keitt. Before embarking upon his later career of infamy, he was, in the beginning, very well known as a reputable merchant in the island of Jamaica. Thence entering, first of all, upon the business of the African trade, he presently, by regular degrees, became a pirate, and finally ended his career as one of the most renowned freebooters of history."

Howard Pyle (1853-1911) was an American author and illustrator. Born in Delaware, Pyle spent much of his life working and teaching illustration in Philadelphia, where he mentored N.C. Wyeth and laid the groundwork for the influential group of artists known as the Brandywine School. Pyle's work includes The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood and a set of books on the exploits of King Arthur. Famous for his prodigious output of written and illustrated works for children, many of which featured pirates, Pyle is a renaissance man and artist for all time.
