These are E. W. Hornung's famous stories of adventure and crime
featuring the thrill seeking A. J. Raffles and his friend,
accomplice and chronicler 'Bunny'. By turns urbane gentleman about
town and accomplished cricketer, life is just too ordinary for
Raffles and that sets him on a series of adventures that have long
been treasured as a real antidote to the 'white knights' who are
the usual heroes of the crime fiction of this period. This book
includes the first two collections of Raffles-the Gentleman
Cracksman-stories, The Amateur Cracksman & The Black
Mask-comprising some 16 stories in all. Included are 'The Ides of
March, ' 'Nine Points of the Law, ' 'The Fate of Faustina' and many
other favourites. Leonaur is bringing the entire Raffles adventures
together in two matching volumes which are available in softcover
and hardcover with dust jacket-making them perfect for collectors.
