It was a distinct honor to be asked to create the map for Michael Crichton’s “Pirate Latitudes.” The completed manuscript was found after his death in November 2008, and is already in the works to become a major motion picture. Like all good pirate stories this one takes place in the Caribbean and along the Spanish Main.
A few places on the map are fictional locations, which had to be located based on the manuscript. Without the assistance of Mr. Crichton it took some time to piece together the travel of the characters to figure out where he intended these fictional places to be located.
