Go inside the cunning mind of a charming criminal genius as National Geographic tells the dramatic story of one of history's mose fearsome pirates. They chart the exploits of Englishman Edward Teach (played by James Purefoy of HBO's hit series Rome, and more), an intelligent and charismatic leader who confounded the powers of England and Virginia as he overtook and pillaged 40 ships in two years, stealing hidden cargo and precious exports to and from the Caribbean. Featuring sea chases, cannon battles, and swordplay. |
