About me:

THE SWASHBUCKLING PRESS IS AN ONLINE ADVENTURE!!

PLEASE STOP IN FOR SOME SWASHBUCKLING FUN!!



THIS MYSPACE PAGE WAS PUT UP TO SHOWCASE THE SWASHBUCKLING PRESS WEBSITE - an adventure that elevates history to its proper pitch!!

AND JUST WHAT IS SWASHBUCKLING????

WELL, FRIENDS, DO YOU LIKE ADVENTURE? DO YOU LIKE HISTORY? MORE IMPORTANTLY, DO YOU LIKE ADVENTUROUS HISTORY?

We have a world of Swashbuckling awaiting the anxious adventurer!!



We cover such subjects as:
PIRATES,
ROBIN HOOD,
THE THREE MUSKETEERS,
D'ARTAGNAN,
KNIGHTS IN ARMOUR,
THE HISTORY OF SWASHBUCKLING,
AND MUCH, MUCH MORE . . . .

ALSO WE HAVE A GREAT SWASHBUCKLING STORE THAT YOU CAN VISIT WHERE YOU WILL HAVE A CHANCE TO PURCHASE THAT SWASHBUCKING-HISTORICAL MOVIE THAT YOU MAY NOT HAVE KNOWN THAT YOU NEEDED FOR YOUR COLLECTION, PERIOD CLOTHING, SWASH-JEWELRY WORTHY OF A SWASH-INDIVIDUAL, CANDLES FOR THE SWASH-LIGHT LOVER WITHIN, BOOKS FOR THE SWASH-READER, WEAPONS & ARMOUR FOR THE SWASH-COLLECTOR, AND EVEN SWASH-TOYS FOR THAT ADVENTURER IN ALL OF US!!!!

AGAIN, WHAT IS SWASHBUCKLING REALLY ALL ABOUT?



When we think of Swashbuckling, we sometimes only image Pirates - which there is absolutely nothing wrong with that!!! However, the world of Swashbuckling is much bigger; and we explore the vast possibilities on our website.

Swashbuckling takes us from the most ancient of times, until we see them in our modern films; It takes us from the clashing of rapiers, to the beautiful south seas; it takes us from the court of Henry the eighth, to the films of Douglas Fairbanks Sr.; it takes us from the Mighty Men of Valour of King David's time, to the desparate pursuit of Braveheart's Sir William Wallace; it takes us from the forest of Sherwood of Robin Hood fame, to the seafaring voyages of Christopher Columbus ... it is History as it should be - Adventurous History, the only way History should be told!!

Forget about the boring History you learned about in grade school, we are speaking of brave Musketeers with their drawn swords, ready to take on the Cardinal's guards; we are speaking of Fletcher Christian, as he is about to Mutiny on the Bounty against Captain Bligh in the Southern Seas; we are speaking about mighty galleons in Queen Elizabeth's reign, under the command of Sir Francis Drake, ready to take on the Spanish Armada; we are speaking about King Richard I, rushing back from his imprisonment to reclaim his throne from his evil brother Prince John; we are speaking about Adino, of King David's Mighty Three, who rose his spear against an army of 800 alone, only to be the cheif of his friends; we are talking of Alexander the Great, just before he decided to conquor the world; we are thinking of Errol Flynn, as he first weilded a sword to the world in Captain Blood, causing a sensation that lasts until today; we are pronouncing loudly about Sir Henry Morgan, who, with the help of Jamie Waring (Jamie Boy), his right hand man, took on the dreaded Pirate Captain Leach, in an effort to sweep the seas of Privateers for his Majesty Charles I of England ... we are speaking of many adventurous things, indeed!!!

Don't miss any of it!!!!
