Mr. Meeson's WillThe Floating Press, 01.06.2012 - 234 Seiten Only a storyteller as preternaturally gifted as action-adventure master H. Rider Haggard could turn a story about a legal battle over publishing rights into a gripping page-turner. Mr. Meeson's Will offers a fascinating glimpse into the legal rights of authors in the nineteenth century -- and a swashbuckling maritime misadventure that comes with a plethora of unpredictable consequences. |
