Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating evolution of maritime law and custom in England, a world where pirates were once seen as powerful figures who defied national boundaries and the laws of the land. The author traces the complex interplay between the Crown, privateers, and the fledgling Admiralty courts as they grappled with the challenges of piracy, prize law, and the burgeoning concept of international waters. The narrative unfolds across centuries, revealing the gradual emergence of legal frameworks governing warfare at sea and the shifting tides of power between different actors. Readers will encounter historical figures like Raleigh and Drake, encounter early legal challenges regarding the capture of goods, and witness the development of the critical notion of territorial waters, a concept that continues to shape international law today. The book reveals the complex realities of maritime history and provides unique insights into the struggle to establish order and justice on the high seas.
