520    In the first-ever comprehensive survey of the world's 
       female buccaneers, Pirate Women: The Princesses, 
       Prostitutes, and Privateers Who Ruled the Seven Seas tells
       of the women, both real and legendary, who through the 
       ages sailed alongside-and sometimes in command of-their 
       male counterparts. These women came from all walks of life
       but had one thing in common: a desire for freedom. History
       has largely ignored these female swashbucklers, until now.
       Here are their stories, from ancient Norse warriors like 
       Awilda, Stikla, and Rusla; to Sayyida al-Hurra of the 
       Barbary corsairs; from Grace O'Malley, who terrorized 
       shipping operations around the British Isles during the 
       reign of Queen Elizabeth; to Cheng I Sao, who commanded a 
       fleet of 400 ships off China in the early 19th century. 
       Author Laura Sook Duncombe also looks beyond the stories 
       to the storytellers and mythmakers. What biases and 
       agendas motivated them? What did they leave out? Pirate 
       Women explores why and how these stories are told and 
       passed down and how history changes depending on who is 
       recording it. It's the largest overview of women pirates 
       in one volume and chock-full of swashbuckling adventures. 
       In this book, pirate women are pulled from the shadows 
       into the spotlight that they deserve.
