It must be a combination of the derring-do, the illegality, and of course the fancy dress and silly speak that appeals – nowhere else would you see a youngster studying one country's attacks on another, and reading about how treasures, slaves and other resources changed hands. This volume, however, tries its best to stand out, and has adopted the equally prevalent concept of getting the reader to pore over large dioramas to seek the small detail hidden in the images. For once, though, there's a thoroughly educative reasoning behind it.[[Pirates Magnified: With a 3x Magnifying Glass by David Long and Harry Bloom|Full Review]]|amazonuk=<amazonuk>1786030276</amazonukbr>}}
