He attracted the attention of William Randolph Hearst when he covered the Cuban War for Independence from 1895-98. He continued as a war correspondent until 1903, when he retired from journalism and focused on writing history and fiction. Blackbeard: Buccaneer tells a tale of Edward Teach, the famous pirate known as Blackbeard. Paine uses fictional characters to weave the tale together, but the details around Blackbeard himself are pretty reliable. And now, Blackbeard: Buccaneer, Part 1 of 8, by Ralph D. Paine

Ep. 1027, The Wake, by Donn Byrne
Wakes are worse when seasoned with vengeance. Donn Byrne, today on The Classic Tales Podcast. Welcome to The Classic Tales Podcast. Thank you for listening. If you’d like to ensure the future of The Classic Tales, please visit the website, , and either make a donation, buy an audiobook, or pick up one of our many support options. And if you can’t support us monetarily, leave us a review or share an episode with a friend. It all helps. Thank you so much. Brian Oswald Patrick Donn-Byrne, who lived from 20 November 1889 – 18 June 1928 was an writer. A fair amount of his career was in America, but in his later years, his financial straits forced him and his wife Dorothea to return to Ireland. The pacing and prose of today’s story really called to me. The gentle stream of consciousness pacing of a man’s mind when his wife has died, and his contemplations really seemed appropriate for this time of year. And now, The Wake, by Donn Byrne
