This week, host Jason Jefferies is joined by Angela C. Sutton, author of Pirates of the Slave Trade: The Battle of Cape Lopez and the Birth of an American Institution, which is published by our friends at Prometheus books. Topics of conversation include making a career out of writing about pirates, research, Black Bart, captured slaves who became pirates, the African King who drank out of a chalice made from dutchmen’s skulls, playing European powers against one another, muskets, and much more.
