One of the most compelling aspects of this work is its incredible detail and depth of research. The author has clearly produced one of the most thorough studies of colonial political, economic, and legal issues possible.... The scale of research certainly is impressive.... I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in the subject of British colonial history, the history of colonial America, or the history of piracy. Student, layman, or professor, this book is worth the effort. -- Robert Dienesch * The Northern Mariner/Le marin du nord * An impressive and important work of scholarship that nevertheless manages to remain readable and accessible to the nonspecialist. * JOURNAL OF BRITISH STUDIES * Suppressing Piracy will be valuable for historians of eighteenth-century trade, enquire, colonial, politics, and piracy, among others. * Journal of Eighteenth Century Studies *
