1895. Hope was a barrister who gave up the law after realizing
success with his novel The Prisoner of Zenda. The book begins:
Stephen! Stephen! Stephen! The impatient cry was heard through all
the narrow gloomy street, where the old richly-carved house-fronts
bowed to meet one another and left for the eye's comfort only a
bare glimpse of blue. It was, men said, the oldest street in
Strelsau, even as the sign of the Silver Ship was the oldest sign
known to exist in the city. For when Aaron Lazarus the Jew came
there, seventy years before, he had been the tenth man in unbroken
line that took up the business; and now Stephen Nados, his
apprentice and successor, was the eleventh. See other titles by
this author available from Kessinger Publishing.
