- "... they had this short segment on Blackbeard, mostly about his final battle on ship with Lt. Maynard, and it just captured my attention... Like most people, I'd heard the name Blackbeard, but never really knew his story. And here he was, this real pirate, in what appeared to be the classic battle of good versus evil. It was fascinating and I had to know more." (en)
