Description

For every would-be pirate who's wished to cast off the shackles of landlubber society, here is the official guide to taking up seagoing roguishness the right way—er, that is, the right wrong way—well, let’s just say Jack’s way.

The Captain Jack Sparrow Handbook gives you an insider’s perspective on all the dirty tricks of the buccaneer’s trade, helpfully arrrrrrrrrticulating such vital nautical information as:

     •  How to Bury Treasure
     •  How to Break a Curse
     •  How to Fight a Tavern Full of Angry Men
     •  How to Stay Alive When Your Ship Sinks
     •  How to Cope with Mermaids

. . . and dozens more crucial skills you’ll want to master before hitting the high seas.
