Blackbeard was a notorious English pirate who had a short reign of terror in the Caribbean Sea between 1716 and 1718. Born in Bristol, his name was given to him because of his thick, long and scruffy black beard (another reference claimed he failed to grow it to a great length, however it came up to his eyes across his face). He was also said to be incredibly cruel to his own crew, more so than the people he held captive. His career as a pirate was made famous by the book A general history of the robberies & murders of the most notorious Pirates, which contained detailed accounts of his actions at sea.
Blackbeard spent most of the first better part of his seafaring life being commanded rather then commanding. He began as an apprentice pirate on board Captain Benjamin Hornigold's Brigantine Ranger (alongside fellow pirate Samuel Bellamy), until 1716 when he was put in command of a sloop by Hornigold. The two had parted ways after Hornigold allowed him to take a Guinea-man for a cruise, he would later name her the Queen Anne's Revenge and she would become the most famous ship Teach would be captain of. Blackbeard's motives for burning ships of New England he attacked and plundered was often rooted (amongst other reasons) as revenge against places where pirates were often hung.
