My role in creating these videos is that of a director and editor. I use AI-powered tools as a powerful partner to help me research and write the script. Throughout this process, I guide the narrative, structure the story, and most importantly, I check the facts to ensure the final story is both true and meaningful. The narration is produced using a digital replica of a real, professional voice actor's voice, and the images are artistic impressions I generate one by one. Even with these powerful tools, bringing a story of this length and detail to life is a process that still requires many days of dedicated work. Please note that while the narrative is thoroughly based on historical research, its primary purpose is storytelling for entertainment and relaxation. As such, it is not intended to be used as a formal academic or scientific source. Thank you for your trust and support.

If you'd like to dive deeper, here are some of the key sources on the reality of a pirate's life: Primary Source: Johnson, Charles (attributed). A General History of the Robberies and Murders of the Most Notorious Pyrates (1724). This is the single most important historical source on the Golden Age, written as the era was ending. It's a mix of surprisingly accurate historical detail and sensationalized storytelling that created the legends of Blackbeard, Calico Jack, Anne Bonny, and Mary Read. Modern Historical Works: Woodard, Colin. The Republic of Pirates: Being the True and Surprising Story of the Caribbean Pirates and the Man Who Brought Them Down (2007). A brilliant and highly readable account of the interconnected lives of the most famous pirates, the rise of their haven in Nassau, and the story of Woodes Rogers, the man sent to hunt them. Cordingly, David. Under the Black Flag: The Romance and the Reality of Life Among the Pirates (1996). As the title suggests, this is a perfect resource for separating the myth from the truth. Cordingly, a maritime expert, delves into the real ships, weapons, codes, and daily lives of pirates. Rediker, Marcus. Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea: Merchant Seamen, Pirates, and the Anglo-American Maritime World, 1700-1750 (1987). This is an essential academic work for understanding why sailors turned to piracy. It masterfully details the brutal working conditions, terrible pay, and harsh discipline on merchant and naval ships, which is the starting point of our story. #History #Pirates #GoldenAgeOfPiracy #HistoryForSleep #SleepStory #CalmHistory #Documentary #Relaxing #HistoryDocumentary #Blackbeard #PirateLife
