Mr. Sabatini first went to school in Switzerland and from there to Lycee of Oporto, Portugal, and like Joseph Conrad, he has never attended an English school.  But English is hardly an adopted language for him, as he learned it from his mother, an English woman who married the Maestro-Cavaliere Vincenzo Sabatini.

Today Rafael Sabatini is regarded as “The Alexandre Dumas of Modern Fiction.”

MISTRESS WILDING

A romance of the days of Monmouth’s rebellion.  The action is rapid, its style is spirited, and its plot is convincing.

FORTUNE’S FOOL

All who enjoyed the lurid lights of the French Revolution with Scaramouche, or the brilliant buccaneering days of Peter Blood, or the adventures of the Sea-Hawk, the corsair, will now welcome with delight a turn in Restoration London with the always masterful Col.  Randall Holles.

BARDELYS THE MAGNIFICENT

An absorbing story of love and adventure in France of the early seventeenth century.

THE SNARE

It is a story in which fact and fiction are delightfully blended and one that is entertaining in high degree from first to last.

CAPTAIN BLOOD

The story has glamor and beauty and it is told with an easy confidence.  As for Blood himself, he is a superman, compounded of a sardonic humor, cold nerves, and hot temper.  Both the story and the man are masterpieces.  A great figure, a great epoch, a great story.

THE SEA-HAWK

“The Sea-Hawk” is a book of fierce bright color and amazing adventure through which stalks one of the truly great and masterful figures of romance.

SCARAMOUCHE

Never will the reader forget the sardonic Scaramouche, who fights equally well with tongue and rapier, who was “born with the gift of laughter and a sense that the world was mad.”
