"I Was Captured by Pirates" - Bold Sailing Adventure Begins in 17th-Century Australia

REDAN, Australia - Aug. 20, 2013 - PRLog -- A boy longing for adventure gets much more than he bargained for, when his ship is attacked by pirates!

In an age when sailing ships offered the only chance to see the world, Gerhard sneaks away from home in Sydney, Australia, to become a cabin boy. He has always had a love of the sea and ships, so he applies under a different name and lies about his age to get the job. Arriving in England, he meets two other lads wanting to set sail. But after leaving port, their ship catches fire and the three are marooned on a deserted island.

Eventually they are picked up by another ship, but pirates attack their rescuers. I Was Captured by Pirates is an unforgettable story about a dramatic time in history, when young boys could experience the adventure of their lives.
