Sabatini
BY DIR. FRANK CRANE.

When a man recommends anything
he likes to his friends, he is In dan
ger OF being a nuisance, whether the
particular thing Is Kind of smoking
tobacco, q necktie, brand of re-
ligion, or a new book. At the same
time, when one strikes something
which pleases him immensely. 1t does
not seem to be quite fair to keep 1t
to himself
read many books. swarrns of them,
galaxfes of them, oodles of them.
Some L read because ] am expected
20 read them. some because other
cause 1 want to find out something
In them, and some because ] like
them. The latter. however, are few.
To come across a book that takes
one by storm. holds him, fascinates
him and gives him that rare intoxlca-
tion that meets the inmost passion, Is
an event.
Recently I went upon a long journey
ana ana spent many days upon the train
found a book. 1t was entitled Cap
tain Blood" by Rafael SabRtini.
l read IT. at first languidly, then in
terestedly, and at last went at it as
drunkard consumes his liquor or a
child devourS sweets.
l passed it on to the other mem
bers of my family. Each read it and
each was consumed by the same fame
that had consumed me.
do not hesitate to say that this is
the best story / have read since THE
Count of Monte Cristo."
do not Judge of 1t as literature.
All 1 know of It is that It is good.
swift, clean English. But II Is not of
Its style that ] would speak.
1t had something more than style,
something rare, the rarest thing in
deed i know of IN writing. 1t had
creative Imagination.
a magazine editor once said to me
that he wished he could get hold of
a good story every month, something
In tho best manner of Conan Doyle.
replied to him that his wishes were
modest, and that he probably failed
to realize that out of the billion or so
probably not over three or four in
dividuals who could create a story,
really fresh. vivid, gripping story.
In Captain Blood" Sabatini has
proven that he is one of these few.
II Is a story of buccaneering days
romantic and adventurous epochs of
the world. and the reader is taken
into the atmosphere of the time and
is made to realize all its vivid charm,
yet is skillfully kept from being
nauseated by its brutality.
The best thing about 1t is that IT is
an imposing tale, a wonderful yarn.
The reader is not interested In its
descriptions, in its literary values, in
it's English, in this or that; he is
Interested in Captain Blood and be-
fore he gets through he is better
acquainted with Captain Blood" than
he is with his neighbor who lives
next door.
whether this is recently publish
ed book or not, have not taken the
pains to inquire. All know is that
I have just read 1t and count it one
of the great books of the world.
1t took me out of myself. 1t opened
a door through which i escaped from
all the commonplace things OF life.
I am a thousand years old more or
less. and it is very rarely that one
can tell me a story interesting enough
to blot out all my surroundings.
All / can say is that when I read
Captain Blood" l had the same sort
Of an experience that ] had when I
was little boy and l heard for the
Giant Killer or Little Red Riding
Hood"
