Along with their fellow pirates \u2014 former sailors, indentured servants, and runaway slaves \u2014 this &#8220;Flying Gang&#8221; established a crude but distinctive democracy in the Bahamas, carving out their own zone of freedom in which servants were free, blacks could be equal citizens, and leaders were chosen or deposed by a vote. <\/p>\n<p>They cut off trade routes, sacked slave ships, and severed Europe from its New World empires. For a brief, glorious period the Republic was a success as the pirates became heroes in the eyes of the people.<\/p>\n<p>Drawing on extensive research in the archives of Britain and the Americas, award-winning author Colin Woodard tells the dramatic untold story of the Pirate Republic that shook the very foundations of the British and Spanish Empires and fanned the democratic sentiments that would one day drive the American revolution.    <\/p>\n<p> Publisher                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 Mariner Books; First Edition (June 30, 2008) <br \/> Language                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 English <br \/> Paperback                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 400 pages <br \/> ISBN-10                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 015603462X <br \/> ISBN-13                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 978-0156034623 <br \/> Item Weight                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 12.8 ounces <br \/> Dimensions                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 5.31 x 0.69 x 8 inches <\/p>\n<div id=\"product-summary\" data-hook=\"cr-insights-widget-summary\" class=\"a-section a-spacing-none\">\n<div class=\"a-section a-spacing-small a-spacing-top-medium\">\n<h3 class=\"a-size-base-plus a-color-base a-text-bold\">Customers say<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"a-spacing-small\"><span>Customers find the book interesting, compelling, and entertaining.
