The Greatest Pirate Adventure Of Them All!



The Colonial Radio Theatre on the Air is proud to present Rafael Sabatini's adventure classic, "Captain Blood," fully dramatized for the first time. Dr. Peter Blood is arrested and sentenced to hang for treating a wounded rebel. Instead of death, he is sent to Barbados as a slave. When the Spanish attack the port city of Bridgetown, he and his fellow slaves capture the Spanish ship and set out to sea, where he becomes the notorious Pirate, Captain Blood. Battles on Sea and on Land, daring escapes, sword duels to the death, a touch of romance, and a magnificent score by Jeffrey Gage, “Captain Blood” is a swashbuckling adventure on a very grand scale! Presented in 17 episodes.

"Crome YellowHuxley's first novelis famous for its technique, ideas, and
acute psychological descriptions. As such, it ranks alongside Antic Hay, Eyeless in
Gaza, and Point Counter Point."The Times

"Robert Whitfield's unabridged reading of Huxley's first novel is a triumph of one man's vocal capacities
.Whitfield's vocal acrobatics in portraying the cast of characters assembled at an English country
estate for a summer vacation in the 1920's makes for dazzling aural entertainment. Otherwise fatuous
goings-on become intriguing shenanigans, and the characters' psychological portraits are rendered
accurately through the unique voices Whitfield assigns them. With each change of the five cassettes,
the listener is more captivated."AudioFile

One of the greatest prose writers and social commentators of the 20th century, Aldous Huxley here
introduces us to a delightfully cynical, comic and severe group of artists and intellectuals engaged in
the most free-thinking and modern kind of talk imaginable. Poetry, occultism, ancestral history, and
Italian primitive painting are just a few of the subjects competing for discussion among the amiable
cast of eccentrics drawn together at Crome, an intensely English country manor.
