Since I’m doing my report on Pirates in the Atlantic, I have found some pretty interesting primary sources.
Here is a map of the West Indies as a “war plan”. It could have been used for pirates. It was created in 1762 by Emanuel Bowden. It is from the Map Collections from the University of Texas in Arlington as well as the University of Texas at Arlington Library. https://texashistory.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metapth190464/
Next is an image depicting a sea battle between the English and Spanish pirates.
“Attack on Spanish Fleet” was created in 1742 during the Battle of Bloody Marsh. It was a fight against the Spanish and the English over Florida and Georgia. Taken from New Georgia Encyclopedia at the Digital Library of Georgia. http://www.georgiaencyclopedia.org/file/6418. Unknown illustrator.
Here is a map of the West Indies, a good source to use when locating pirate attacks or getting a sense of where pirates conducted most of their activity. Taken from the University of Texas at Arlington Library in the Map Collections from the University of Texas at Arlington and made by N & S.S. Jocelyn in 1825. https://texashistory.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metapth192608/
