About this audiobook
How will Captain Morgan save his fellow captain who is being held prisoner by the Spanish vice admiral?¶Howard Pyle was first and foremost an artist. He taught for several years at what became Drexel University, and many noteworthy artists studied under him, including N.C. Wyeth and Frank Schoonover.¶Pyle is credited with establishing what has come to be known as the modern stereotype pirate attire. Since there wasn't much to draw upon as far as historical documentation as to what pirates actually wore, Pyle borrowed largely from gypsy garments and styles to create the pirate look we know today. It's been criticized as being wildly impractical for actual sailoring.¶He wrote and illustrated several books for young adults, including The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood, and a four-volume set on the life of King Arthur. He breathed new life into children's literature, bringing a solid artistic background to his illustrations, raising the genre to a new level.
