Pirate Hunters: Treasure, Obsession, and the Search for a Legendary Pirate Ship by Robert Kurson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Another great true yarn spun by master storyteller, Robert Kurson, detailing the adventures of 2 deep sea wreck divers searching for the most famous 17th century pirate's boat, Joseph Bannister's Golden Fleece, sunk in a battle with the British Royal Navy. Lots of twists & turns and drama, which involved doing extensive research in old documents to find out more & to pinpoint the possible location of the sunken Golden Fleece wreck...which had not been located/found before. Kurson also wrote Shadow Divers--which was an excellent book on the finding & identifying of a lost/forgotten sunken German U-Boat from WWII. Listened to this on my iPhone; borrowed from the library.
