Морской ястреб

The Sea Hawk is one of the best works of the English writer Rafael Sabatini, a classic of historical adventure literature. This is a fascinating story of Sir Oliver, an English gentleman who, by the will of fate, became a galley slave, and then the formidable pirate Saqr al-Bar, the Sea Hawk, a man of steel will, bestial cunning and amazing fearlessness. These qualities helped him stay alive on the galleys, survive at the court of the Algerian pasha and be invincible in naval battles. And yet, Sark-al-Bar is on the verge of death, because he is unable to cope with his feelings - love, anger and a thirst for revenge ... The adventures of Sir Oliver are closely intertwined with the events of the harsh and heroic XVI century, the legendary era of the reign of Elizabeth I. This edition also includes the novels Fooled by Fortune and The Venetian Mask, on the pages of which the history of the 17th-18th centuries comes to life.
