Summary of robert kurson's pirate hunters

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights:#1 John Chatterton and John Mattera were planning a treasure hunt, and they had already moved to the Dominican Republic to start it. They met with Tracy Bowden, a legendary treasure hunter, who showed them coins and artifacts from shipwrecks he'd worked on.#2 In the seventeenth century, a well-respected English sea captain named Joseph Bannister stole the great ship he commanded, the Golden Fleece, and embarked on a pirating rampage. He became one of the most wanted men in the Caribbean. The harder the English tried to stop him, the more ingeniously he defied them.#3 Bowden believed he knew the location of the Golden Fleece, a pirate ship that had sunk off Cayo Levantado in the Dominican Republic. He offered to give Chatterton and Mattera 20 percent of the treasure if they found it. They could never accept his offer, as they knew they could never betray Bowden.#4 The two partners had trained for two years to find treasure, and spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on boats and equipment. They had put together a crew, and had nearly gotten into gunfights in wild but beautiful places.
