Pirates in the UK!

Pirates of the Seven Seas, the UK edition of The World Atlas of Pirates has finally arrived in UK bookstores and online! The Lyons Press title did so well in the USA that UK distributors have picked up AA Media's illustrated book about the history of piracy, written by top pirate buff Angus Konstam, illustrated by cartographic illustrator Brian Delf and, of course, put together by the team here at Hunkydory Publishing Ltd.

UK booksellers preferred the alternative book title, so we created a new cover and jacket design and substituted the British, rather than US English text before it went to print.

It's always a pleasure to see a book we've worked on go into new markets, as it makes all the hard work and attention to detail the more worthwhile. Take a look at our books section under The World Atlas of Pirates to see why we're so proud. Fingers crossed the next two in the series of World Atlases from AA Media now see the light of day.
