it's a pity I missed out on Weyman (never heard of him!
) in my Orczy/Hope/McCutcheon/Sabatini adolescence, as I'd have loved him as I still love the
The Scarlet Pimpernel,
The Prisoner of Zenda and so forth. Some books benefit highly from being read at the perfect age. That said,
far better late than never!
Thank you for the recommendations.
