Welcome to ya, one and all.

We'd like ta tell ya a bit about a chronicle for those interested in
sea-adventurers & sailors-of-fortune.

'Tis called:

No Quarter Given

Cover of "No Prey No Pay" IssueCover of Buccaneering Women IssueCover of "Plunder by Thunder" Issue

Cover of "A Mermaids Tale" IssueCover of "Madagascar" Issue

Whether ye be intersted in the buccaneers and privateers of the Caribbean Sea, Elizabethan Sea Dogs, or Jean Laffite's pirates of Barataria, we'll be havin' something of interest to ya. This periodical of historical (and not-so-historical) merit will cover a broad range of sea adventurers, though focusing lavishly on the Golden Age of the buccaneers (based mainly in Tortuga, Port Royal, New Providence, the Spanish Main & Madagascar, during the 17th to early 18th C.).

Six times a year "No Quarter Given" will bring you generously illustrated articles on the history, lore, romance, and sheer adventure of bein' a pirate or privateer.

-- We'll be writing informative articles about nautical information on everything from anchors to xebecs, maps and charts to help ya navigate, sea chanteys and pirate ballads, and scurrilous yarns to entertain you.

-- For those interested in historical re-enactment events, "No Quarter Given" will provide costuming information, calendar listings for events of interest, pirate persona development, and groups to join.

-- Follow the continuing, and ever-exciting scurrilous tales of various pirates.

So as to secure your own "No Quarter Given", each and every occurrence, you can sign the articles and join up with the "No Quarter Given" crew:
