The Sea-Hawk
by Rafael Sabatini
Rafael Sabatini's classic story of sea adventures, set at the end of the 16th century, is the story of Sir Oliver Tressilian, who is badly betrayed by a jealous half-brother. Forced into slavery in a Spanish kitchen, Oliver is freed by Berber pirates, whom he later joins and takes the name "Sakr el-Bahr" or falcon of the sea. An action film set on the high seas and a fascinating story about adventures, "Sea Hawk" is one of Sabatini's most beloved and classic works.
