A wanted poster for the Great Lakes Pirates

Want to know more about Piracy on the Great Lakes? This is a podcast I participated in recently for the Mathieu Project with Mathieu Itoney where we spend time digging into the background of Great Lakes Pirates. From the era of the fur trade through prohibition, pirates roamed the Great Lakes. They took advantage of anything they could find and were rarely caught. There were fur trade pirates, timber pirates, Mormon pirates, civil war pirates, brawling pirates, and prohibition pirates. These are True Tales of Freshwater Pirates! Check out the conversation.
