Octavo. 288 pages.
Selected bibliography and Index.
"Fans
of smooth, charming, tough, smart, high living, Robin Hood (sorta)
British crime fighters will love this history of the twentieth century
rogues who bashed baddies and gave authority figures head aches. They're
all here, Raffles; Bulldog; Saint; Mixer; Toff; Black Shirt; Norman
Conquest.
Even the original, Sexton Blake, shows how it was done in
late Victorian times. And of course, Her Majesty's defender, 007 is
here."--Pleiades2.
William Vivian Butler (1927-1987) also wrote novels under the pseudonym "Vivian Butler". Most of his books featured characters created by John Creasey.
