520    In work of narrative nonfiction filled with romance and 
       high seas adventure, a historian and journalist charts the
       life of Sarah Kidd, who secretly aided and abetted her 
       infamous husband, pirate Captain Kidd, from within the 
       strictures of polite society in seventeenth- and 
       eighteenth-century New York. 
520    Captain Kidd was one of the most notorious pirates to ever
       prowl the seas. Few know that he had an accomplice who 
       enabled his plundering and helped him outpace his enemies:
       his wife, Sarah Kidd. Geanacopoulos reconstructs Sarah 
       Kidd's life: Love, treasure, motherhood and survival. 
       Sarah not only survived her husband, but went on to live a
       successful and productive life as one of New York's most 
       prominent citizens. -- adapted from jacket
