Holy Cow! Kurson seems to have done it again. He's brought back the magic he's had ever since Shadow Divers.Now be forewarned that this book is kind of like a sequel to Shadow Divers (which is a truly fantastic experience to read). This can be read as a stand alone book but their is a synopsis of Shadow Divers included inside Pirate Hunters and reading this book first before Shadow divers might ruin some of the magic and wonder you experience by reading Shadow Divers first and then this one after.Robert Kurson is a fantastic writer and in his books he becomes a conductor of a great symphony that guides your emotions from Sympathy, to Love, to Wonder, and then in a forceful ballad he makes your heart pound throughout a booming Adventure. Each emotion is delivered in a perfect sequence that only a master could craft.Ever since Shadow Divers I have searched for a book that would renew that spirit of Adventure I experienced in reading  Kurson's first foray into the Novel world. I searched but came up empty until I saw Pirate Hunters. Now that I've read it I'm saddened that its over and now I have to return to my search.One Critic I would give is that the pictures in the middle of the book kind of spoil the ending, so just don't look at them until after you have read the book. It will give you a better experience.As you can tell, I enjoyed this book immensely. I've passed it on and bought copies for friends and family and every single one of them became just as entranced by the book as I was. So my suggestion to you is buy this book. Buy Shadow Divers.And a note to Robert Kurson:Please keep writing. I like that your books a few and far in between (because it keeps the quality above par) but please get cracking on another adventure. You keep writing and I will keep singing your praises.

    Excellent book, worth reading, but the glorification of pirate life…
  

*by F***R on Reviewed in the United States on September 23, 2023*

..Is confusing. Pirates were modern day thugs killing and stealing so I don’t get the constant compliments by Mattera in particular. With that said, an amazing discovery by 4 guys who refused to give up.

    Thrilling and fast paced.

Joseph Bannister, the captain of the <i>Golden Fleece</i>, was one of the most notorious pirates during the Golden Age of Piracy (1650 - 1720).  His name isn't as recognizable as some others like Blackbeard, Captain Kidd, or Anne Bonny.  Bannister began life as a merchant captain, ferrying cargo between the Caribbean and London.  This was a well respected job that earned him a decent salary and would have ended with him retiring comfortably.  For reasons unknown he decided to throw all that away, steal his ship, and turn pirate.  This is the story of the men who set out to find that ship.John Chatterton and John Mattera are two divers with a penchant for finding lost wrecks.  Chatterton is famous for finding the wreck of a German U-Boat right off the coast of New Jersey.  That story is told in Kurson's other book "Shadow Divers".  The problem with finding pirate ships is that pirates were by their nature very sneaky.  They were wanted men with prices on their heads so they didn't exactly broadcast their whereabouts or paint the names of their ships on the hull, despite what movies would have you believe.  At the time the search begins only one other pirate ship had ever been found and identified, so the odds of finding this one are very long.The book is great, fast paced, well researched, and full of great information.  Not only does it chronicle the long and exhaustive search for the ship.  A search that saw Chatterton and Mattera travel around the world hunting for clues and doing research.  It also gives you a view into what the life of a pirate would have been like back in the late 1600s.Kurson's "Shadow Divers" is one of my favorite books, "Pirate Hunters" is a fantastic follow up.
