Algiers,  Part Four: Pirates of Barbary with Adrian Tinniswood

Algiers, Part Four: Pirates of Barbary with Adrian Tinniswood

This week is a very special episode, as I'll be interviewing the brilliant author Adrian Tinniswood all about the Pirates of Algiers and the 'Barbary states'.


Often dismissed as savage and cruel by renaissance and early modern Europeans, these 'pirates' were infinitely more complex and interesting than simplistic narratives would tell you.


Adrian's book Pirates Of Barbary shines a different light on the culture and motivations of those people who decided to sail under the flag of Algiers.
