Imbibe: A Lecture Series
“a hot, hellish, & terrible liquor”: Rum & the Taste of Empire in Colonial North America
One of the first Europeans to taste rum, an English settler to Barbados named John Lingon, called the spirit “Kill-devil… a hot, hellish, and terrible liquor.” It wasn’t long, however, before his palate was in the minority. By the 18th century, rum was not only considered indispensable for Christmas parties, evening routs, and pirate ships, it was a commodity that greased the wheels of Britain’s empire and fuelled the rebels who sought to destroy it in 1776. From pantry to table-top, taverns to the top brass, this lecture will explore how colonial people (in both Canada and the US) drank, traded, and fought over Lingon’s terrible ‘rum-bullion.’
Renée Salhany is an associate professor of history at Brock University, who researches the history of drink, drinkers and the trouble they got themselves into, particularly during the War of 1812 era.

13 Bizarre Pirate Traditions Most People Don't Know About
Pirates have a reputation--admittedly earned--for being ruthless, bloodthirsty killers. Life on the high seas demanded so much of those willing to brave it that it became customary for new pirates to develop an honorable accord.
Pirates had a surprisingly complex culture, and what’s crazier to us is that movies have barely scratched the surface of their traditions.
