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, 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!
