About Title: Sir Oliver Tressilian, Cornish gentleman, became a follower of Mahmud, and a Barbary corsair, winning for himself the title of Sakr-el-Bahr -- Hawk of the Sea. He adopts the picturesque Barbary costume and becomes a favorite of the Basha. Finally on a captured Spanish ship he invades the coast of England and carries away the girl whose love for him has been poisoned by falsehood and whose unforgiving hate had kept him from returning to his home.
