Englishman Peter Blood, a noble doctor who was imprisoned for attending to a wounded rebel, narrowly escapes the hanging during the turbulent reign of James II.
Blood, who was given a ten-year sentence of servitude on a Barbados plantation, escapes from captivity and courageously begins a career as a pirate, never losing sight of his objectives to clear his record and go back to England.
Sabatini is an exhilarating story of piracy on a grand scale, enhanced by breath-taking naval manoeuvres, narrow escapes, and broadside strikes.
Captain Blood, a swashbuckling classic that brims with looted wealth and maritime adventure, immediately rose to the top of the bestseller list after it was originally released in 1922.
