Sisterhood/Brotherhood Coffee Break Book Club
Saturday, June 1
1:45 – 3:00pm
Location TBD
Everyone is invited to be part of the discussion, as Don Wolman leads the June 1st book club
meeting on a non-fiction book, Jewish Pirates of the Caribbean by Edward Kritzler.
In the 1400s and 1500s, the brutality of the Spanish and Portuguese Inquisitions motivated daring
Jews to take to the high seas. Many Jews became pirates, privateers, ship captains, navigators,
explorers and global business figures.
Generations of swashbuckling Jews carved out an empire in the New World in their quest for
treasure, religious freedom, power and revenge. Jewish captains took to the oceans, plundering the
hated Spanish ships, and even helping Oliver Cromwell take over Jamaica for Great Britain. We’ll
learn about the Jewish connections of pirates Henry Morgan, Jean Lafitte, and Sultan Suleiman’s
fierce pirate commander, Barbarossa. Avast! Yo ho ho and a bottle of Manischewitz!
