Captain Blood by Rafael Sabatini is a landmark in adventure fiction, bringing the swashbuckling pirate genre into literary prominence. Published in 1922, it captivated readers with its blend of historical drama, romance, and action, set against the backdrop of the late 17th-century Caribbean. Sabatini's meticulous research and vivid portrayal of piracy as both thrilling and complex helped shape the modern image of the pirate in popular culture. The novel's influence extends to film and literature, establishing enduring tropes of heroism, rebellion, and high-seas adventure.
