Mrs. Raffles: Being the Adventures of an Amateur Crackswoman

Zusatztext

The adventures of Arthur J. Raffles, cricketer and gentleman thief, and his chronicler, Harry 'Bunny' Manders, set in late-Victorian Britain written by E. W. Hornung are legendary. A resemblance to the narrative form of Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes stories - with Raffles and his partner Bunny Manders being the criminal counterparts to Holmes and Dr. Watson make these adventures rather cozy reading material. Of the numerous Pastiches and spin-offs that were written based on Raffles the anti-hero, Mrs. Raffles Being the Adventures of an Amateur Crackswoman, written by John Kendrick Bangs introduces the reader with the criminal exploits of the widow of the now-deceased A. J. Raffles.
