"Captain Blood: His Odyssey" is an adventure novel by Rafael Sabatini,
published in 1922. The story follows the protagonist, Dr. Peter Blood, an
Irish physician with a diverse background as a soldier and sailor. After being
arrested during a rebellion, Blood is convicted of treason and transported to
Barbados. There, he becomes a skilled physician and forms a connection with
Arabella Bishop, the niece of his owner. Blood escapes with fellow convicts,
becomes a successful pirate, and eventually receives a pardon after the
Glorious Revolution. The novel ends with the implication that Blood will marry
Arabella and become the governor of Jamaica. The book was immensely popular
and inspired several sequels and adaptations in various forms of media.
Sabatini's approach to historical fiction, basing it closely on real events,
adds depth to the story.
