Jacques Cartier prépare minutieusement son premier voyage. Comme il est soutenu par le roi de France, il parvient à lever son équipage. Le 20 avril 1534, il assiste à la messe et au sortir de l’église, toute la ville l’accompagne sur les quais. La foule en liesse veut assister au départ de ce grand personnage auquel rien ne résiste. Il appareille avec deux navires ornés du drapeau fleurdelisé, symbole de la royauté. C’est le départ pour la grande aventure. En moins de trois semaines d’une traversée assez tranquille, Jacques Cartier passe au large de Terre-Neuve.

Story
On Wide Seas: The US Navy in the Jacksonian Era details the ways in which the US Navy transformed from an antiquated arm of the nation’s military infrastructure into a more dynamic and effective force that was soon to play a pivotal role in a number of national and international conflicts. Jackson developed a clear, concise naval strategy that policymakers and officers alike could seize and execute. They carried out a collective vision that coincided with the national literary movement that recognized America’s future would rely upon the Navy.

Story
On the night of June 1, 1743, terror struck the schooner Rising Sun. After completing a routine smuggling voyage where the crew sold enslaved Africans in exchange for chocolate, sugar, and coffee in the Dutch colony of Suriname, the ship traveled eastward along the South American coast. Believing there was an opportunity to steal the lucrative cargo and make a new life for themselves, three sailors snuck below deck, murdered four people, and seized control of the vessel.

Story
Es gilt als unberechenbar und zugleich als Sehnsuchtsort: das Meer. Die unendliche Weite, die Schönheit, aber auch die Gefahren, die die Hohe See birgt, faszinieren Abenteurer und Autoren seit Jahrhunderten. Doch zusehends gefährden Überfischung und Umweltverschmutzung das Meer als Lebensraum und als Ressource für den Menschen. Der mit dem Pulitzer-Preis ausgezeichnete amerikanische Journalist Ian Urbina spürt einerseits dieser Faszination nach und deckt andererseits Missstände auf, wie moderne Sklaverei auf Fischerbooten oder das Aussetzen blinder Passagiere auf hoher See.

This book is an account of ships that have borne the name Queen of the Lakes, an honorary title indicating that, at the time of its launching, a ship is the longest on the Great Lakes. In one of the most comprehensive books ever written on the maritime history of the lakes, Mark Thompson presents a vignette of each of the dozens of ships that have held the title, chronicling the dates the ship sailed, its dimensions, the derivation of its name, its role in the economic development of the region, and its sailing history.

Story
Die Piraterie ist fast so alt wie die Seefahrt selbst. Schon der griechische Historiker Thukydides berichtete im 5. Jahrhundert v. Chr. von Völkern, die sich ihren Lebensunterhalt mit dem Überfall auf fremde Schiffe "verdienten". Geblieben ist seitdem die Verklärung. Gern werden Seeräuber in Büchern und Filmen als Helden à la Robin Hood dargestellt oder als aufrechte Streiter gegen Knechtung und Entrechtung idealisiert.

Story
On July 4, 1861, the schooner S. J. Waring set sail from New York on a routine voyage to South America. Seventeen days later it limped back into New York's harbor with the ship's black cook and steward at the helm. While the story of that ill-fated voyage is one of the most harrowing tales of captivity and survival on the high seas, it has been tragically lost to history. Now reclaiming William Tillman as the American hero he deserves to be, historian Brian McGinty takes listeners on a courageous journey.

Piraten zeigt uns einige der schillerndsten Figuren, die diese Berufssparte hervorgebracht hat. Über Jahrhunderte ließen sich ehrgeizige Regenten durch Männer wie Henry Morgan oder Francis Drake ihre Kassen füllen. Mutige und unerschrockene Männer auf beiden Seiten ließen ihr Leben im Kampf um Gold und teure Handelsgüter. Sie begründeten den Mythos von Freiheit und Abenteuer auf See. Grandiose Leinwandauftritte von Schauspielern wie Johnny Depp oder Errol Flynn nähren unser Bild vom lebenslustigen Piraten. Trinkfest, rauhbeinig und bei Damen äußerst charmant. Doch war die große Ära des Piratentums wirklich so romantisch?
