Rafael Sabatini 
The Sea-Hawk [EPUB ebook] 

‚The Sea Hawk‘ is Raphael Sabatini’s classic tale of nautical adventure set in the late 16th century. It is the story of Sir Oliver Tressilian who is villainously betrayed by a jealous half-brother. Being forced into slavery aboard a Spanish galley, Sir Oliver is subsequently freed by Barbary pirates whom he joins and gains the name ‚Sakr-el-Bahr‘, or the hawk of the sea. A gripping tale of action and adventure set aboard the high seas, ‚The Sea Hawk‘ is one of Sabatini’s most loved and classic works.
