Gold & Gunpowder is made by a single person without the use of AI. If your image or footage did not receive credit, contact Gold & Gunpowder.

There are many stories of horror at sea, committed by those who sail beneath the bloody flag: Jean-David Nau tore out the hearts of his victims. Harry Morgan starved his prisoners. Charles Vane tied burning matchcords around his victims’ fingers. Henry Every violated an entire ship full of women.

Worst among them, is always recalled the notorious Edward Low. He is not remembered for his competency or captaincy, but for the blood he spilled, and souls he condemned to damnation. Stories of lips being cut, cooks burned alive aboard their ships, and entire crews massacred. But stories say a lot of things, not all of them true. Edward Low has been smeared by the history books, but was he really so bad? And did he have a reason, something deep within him, for acting how he did?
