Be More Pirate Book Shop

Once minds are opened to the idea of changing the world like a pirate, and once people have ‘inhaled’, ‘devoured’ or ‘read twice in one weekend’ (all your words not mine) Be More Pirate, the question arises what next.

So, here are two further reading lists:

1) "The Truth About Pirates" are books to broaden your pirate knowledge and reeducation of their true and troublesome history.

2) "The Books That Changed The World" are some of the other more modern world changing sources I used as inspiration in writing the book.

So it’s sort of the Be More Pirate bibliography, only with a buy button!
