Born as Edward Teach in 1680 Bristol, England, he trolled theWest Indies and the east coast of Britain’s North American colonies in search ofill-gotten booty.Upon sight of his ominous sailing ship, “Queen Anne’s Revenge,” most merchantships, as well as would-be opponents, would reverse course and retreat lest theybecome engaged in vicious confrontation with the bloodthirsty sea bandit.
