Blackbeard, Black Bart, Captain Kidd, Captain Morgan, etc... All the big names of the Golden Age of Piracy seem to be British. Was late-17th/early-18th-c. Atlantic piracy really overwhelmingly British, or have Anglo-Americentric views of that period minimized pirates of other nations? (6th attempt)
