Hardcover book with an illustration by James Gurney of a skeleton standing on the deck of a sailing ship. He is wearing a ragged tricorner hat and his left leg is a wooden pegleg from the knee down. He is holding a brass telescope in his left hand and a cutlass in his right, point down resting on the side of a spilled ironbound wooden chest with gold falling out. Behind him can be seen a cannon, rigging, sails, and a storm-tossed sea.
On Stranger Tides
