Here, in this volume, they are gathered together for the first time, perhaps not just as Mr. Pyle would have done, but with a completeness and appreciation of the real value of the material which the author's modesty might not have permitted."</p><p>--Merle Johnson, Foreword, 1921</p><p><em>Howard Pyle's Book of Pirates--Fiction, Fact & Fancy concerning the Buccaneers & Marooners of the Spanish Main </em>(1921) is a beautifully illustrated book about pirates and buccaneers of the Spanish Main written by Howard Pyle, with his own 62 illustrations, including 13 color illustrations.
