New York: Cliff Street Books / Harper Collins, (1999) dj. Hardcover first edition - A book which weaves together two stories: that of pirate Black Sam Bellamy's history and Clifford's own story. "As a child, Clifford's uncle would spend long afternoons telling him the story of Black Sam Bellamy, a pirate from England who captured the heart of Cape Cod's lovely Maria Hallert. Bellamy and his crew sailed to the Caribbean to make their fortune, and make it they did, becoming among the most successful pirates of the early eighteenth century. On their return to Cape Cod, where Bellamy planned to reunite with his lover, a powerful storm wrecked the ship at Maria's very doorstep, killing almost all on board." Fascinated by these stories, Clifford embarked on a lifelong quest to find the wreck and to establish a museum to display the artifacts. Illustrated with photographs. Review copy with publisher's material 311 pp. ISBN: 0-060192321.
