Rafael Sabatini (1875–1950) was an Italian-English writer known for his adventure novels and historical romances, characterized by fast-moving plots, engaging characters, and a vivid sense of history. Born in Jesi, Italy, to an English mother and Italian father, Sabatini mastered multiple languages early, an advantage that facilitated his multicultural literary expressions. His early education in Portugal and Switzerland shaped his cosmopolitan literary perspective, much to his readers' delight. Sabatini sought a career in writing in England, publishing his first novel, 'The Lovers of Yvonne', at the age of 27, which was the beginning of an illustrious writing career that spanned 53 published works. His oeuvre is best remembered for 'Scaramouche' (1921), 'Captain Blood' (1922), and 'The Sea Hawk' (1915), which not only gained him fame during his lifetime but have also stood the test of time, remaining popular among readers and adapted for movies and theatre. Sabatini's 'The Collected Works of Rafael Sabatini' offers a comprehensive representation of the breadth and depth of his literary creation. His unique blend of historical accuracy and romanticized adventure reflects in his narrative style, making him a distinguished figure in early 20th-century literature. His legacy survives in the sustained interest in swashbuckling novels and the ongoing cultural impact of his most famous characters.
