    Summary: 
    Over three months in the summer before the Civil War, New York suffered a massacre, a flight, a manhunt, and a trial, all of which kept the nation riveted and remade Albert Hicks, the last pirate of New York, into a celebrated antihero. For years Hicks operated out of the public eye, rambling from crime to crime. In 1860 he was hired, under an alias, as a hand on an oyster sloop. His plan was to rob the ship and disappear into the teeming streets of lower Manhattan. Cohen tells the story of this notorious underworld figure, the crime spree that forged his ruthlessness and his reputation, and his ultimate incarnation as a demon who terrorized lower Manhattan. -- adapted from jacket
