The Marooned Captain: Edward England

The Marooned Captain: Edward England

The new season of "Echoes of History" features Ubisoft's new game: "Skull and Bones".


Who said all pirates were cruel and bloodthirsty? Definitely not Edward England. For this buccaneer who had been in the English Navy, piracy was a dream of freedom and wealth. Nothing obliged him to torture, kill, or decapitate opposing crews. An unconventional stance that didn't win England many friends. Within his own crew, the captain soon discovered that violence was part of pirate life… Whether he liked it or not.
