The Incredible True Story of a Marooned Pirate

If you’d like to support the show, please consider donating to our Patreon!   / historydose   There are a lot of popular misconceptions about pirates, but the trope of pirates marooning victims on desert islands has a strong historical backing. For instance, codes of law followed by pirates specifically listed marooning as a punishment for breaking the code. While pirates left victims of marooning for dead, there are a few survival stories. We look at the story of Alexander Selkirk, one of the most famous survival narratives. A special thanks to Sean Feely and Bobby Jordan, two of our most valued Patreon supporters!
