Black Sam Bellamy was one of history’s most successful pirates — with more than a hundred million dollars in stolen booty — in today’s money — and dozens of ships captured. His most famous capture was a former slave ship called the Whydah. It's the ship on which he lost his life during a fateful storm off the coast of Cape Cod.
In the tradition of great storytellers, Davis continues to approach Off The Path in serial form. He’ll explore this season, called "Off the Plank," in 2 or 3 installments and then combine them into a single podcast episode. Here, you’ll find those individual installments — which we’re calling “Mile Markers.” Enjoy the ride!
