"The I Escaped Series: The World's Favorite Escapes.

Embark on an unforgettable journey back to the thrilling Golden Age of Piracy.

The year is 1690, and 15-year-old Jon is a young sailor aboard a merchant ship. Disaster strikes when they're attacked and boarded by pirates, led by the infamous Captain Morgan. Taken captive Jon must make a choice: join the swashbuckling crew or be left stranded on a deserted island. Jon is no seasoned buccaneer. He's just an honest young sailor from the American colonies. With his worried parents back home, he must find a way to survive and escape. Facing a looming sea battle alongside his new pirate shipmates, Jon comes up with a daring idea that sets the scene for an exciting escape.

In 1690, the battle-scarred seas bore witness to Captain Morgan's infamous skirmishes, as he boldly challenged the Spanish fleet and altered the tides of Caribbean power. His story is one of relentless bravery and strategic battles that carved his name into the annals of piracy.

Perfect for kids who are fans of swashbuckling tales and historical adventures, especially those captivated by the Golden Age of Piracy. It plunges into the maritime lore of the 1600s, reviving the exploits of the legendary Captain Morgan. Young readers will navigate the treacherous waters of the Caribbean, encountering the cunning of pirates, the clash of Spanish galleons, and the daring of privateers. Brimming with educational details about nautical navigation, notorious buccaneers, and sea battles, all crafted to engage and inform young minds about this tumultuous chapter in maritime history.
