RAFAEL SABATINI'S NOVELS
May be had wherever books are sold. Ask for Grosset & Dunlap's list
JESI, a diminutive city of the Italian Marches, was the birth-place of Rafael Sabatini.
He first went to school in Switzerland and from there to Lycee of Oporto, Portugal, and has never attended an English school. But English is hardly an adopted language for him, as he learned it from his mother, an English woman.
Today Rafael Sabatini is regarded as "The Alexandre Dumas of Modern Fiction."
