If your mental image of the Victorian age consists of parasols, tea parties, prudery, and parlor games, think again. In this collection of thrilling tales from Arthur Conan Doyle, the vigorous masculinity of the era is exposed in all its glory. Stories from the battlefield and the playing field provide a starkly different view of the late nineteenth century.
