Little is known about Bonny, due to the fact that there are myths and facts about her. Too many to distiguish infact. Bonny was of Irish descent and was born in 1697. She was said to be a pirate in 1713. She was the daughter of an intelligent lawyer, William Marry Brennan. She had to be a strong independent woman when her mother died in the late teens. Some sources say that she put a man in the hospital after her failed to sexually assault her(She beat him). And that she killed a servant girl with a knife. She was turned away from her home after she married James bonnie. from there they left to new providence together, where james realized he could not support her, so he left her. With the help of a homosexual man who ran a a popular ladies establishment, they made a name for Bonny.
Introduction
I chose this topic because it is similar to my book "The Republic of Pirates" by Colin Woodward. Which if you did not notice is about pirates. I also chose it because there is a ton of information that I found on pirates in general. From the pirrates in movies, to legends of pirates, to modern everyday pirates. such as the Somali pirates. That is basically what this blog is all about. It will cover the timeline of pirates to, to ransoms, to the legends of them. Like Blackbeard or the media's very own Captain Jack Sparrow. This blog will give you Videos and pictures on pirates. It will tell you about some of the methods, and tactics, and weapons the pirates use.
