The Scrimshander

Nova Scotia, 1952. Not exactly the place you'd expect to run into pirates. But an old mariner, his boat driven ashore in a gale, brings with him enough stories about buccaneers and their lore to make it seem that he must have had firsthand experience of the pirate life. But how is that possible? Captain Charles Johnson's uncanny knowledge of seamanship's dark side fuels the imagination of the young boy he befriends, setting the boy on his own journey of mysterious adventure.

<p>William Gilkerson takes the broad, sweeping history of the human race and puts it into pictures that are at once meaningful, sometimes profound, and always funny. His pen takes us from cave men with rocks to modern bombs and rockets, and depicts the chaos throughout. First published in 1963, we are delighted to bring this amusing and glorious look at arms and armies through the ages to a new audience. There are laughs on every page, but also wry, thought-provoking observations, all expressed through Gilkerson's wonderfully detailed drawings which will enthrall readers of all ages.</p>
