What this book is about
Dr. Peter Blood is condemned to slavery in Barbados for treating a rebel's wounds. He escapes on a captured ship and becomes Captain Blood — the most daring buccaneer of the Spanish Main. Sabatini's swashbuckling classic from 1922 is adventure at its purest: honor, justice, excitement, and a satisfying romance.
