The Story of London's Most Terrifying Epidemic, and How it Changed Science, Cities and the Modern World 7/10 The most dastardly pirate you've never heard of gets his due in 'Enemy of All Mankind' In the pantheon of pirates, Henry Every isn’t mentioned in the same breath as Sir Francis Drake or Blackbeard or Captain Morgan, if he is mentioned at all. Yet in 1695, thanks to hard work, a fast boat and a lucky shot, Every scored what some consider to be the biggest heist – not only in the annals of buccaneering but in the history of crime. More remarkable, despite a worldwide manhunt, Every and most of his crew got away with it – along with loot estimated to be as much as $60 million in today’s currency. This now-forgotten Englishman from Devon was the Osama bin Laden of his day, in the crosshairs of the world’s seafaring nations and fellow pirates alike. He would have fetched the equivalent of $50,000, dead or alive. usatoday 9/10
