Rafael Sabatini's Captain Blood books, starting with Captain Blood (made into a fun film in the 1930s with Errol Flynn at his rousing best. There were two or three other Captain Blood books, not exactly sequels but fitted into the time-span of the first book.
The exploits of Captain Blood, by the way, all happened (but to various different privateers).
If you enjoy a laugh, try George MacDonald Fraser's "Pyrates" in which he sends up the whole genre. Fraser, you'll remember, wrote the Flashman series.
