E. W. Hornung
Englisch | Taschenbuch

A selection of the best classic crime stories featuring the much-loved rogue, Raffles<BR><BR>'Why should I work when I could steal?

The Ballad Of Ensign
The Ballad Of Ensign
E. W. Hornung
A stirring voyage for the mind and heart, beckoning readers back to a brisk Edwardian sea spray of verse and valor.The Ballad Of Ensign gathers a complete poetry collection of ballad verse that sails between duty and honour, duty-bound sailors, and quiet moments ashore. With sea life themes at its core and military discipline threaded through every stanza, the collection offers a lucid, accessible path into English ballad poetry and nautical mood. It reads with the clarity and moral compass of classic adventure, yet with a modern, human heat that invites both casual readers and serious poetry lovers to linger on each line. The result is more than a surface voyage; it is a voyage of character, memory, and national identity.Historically, the work stands as a bright thread in the British navy's cultural tapestry, a touchstone of edwardian era setting and naval life that influenced later writers in the Arthur Conan Doyle tradition. This edition is not a mere reprint but a restoration and celebration-an illustrated edition that elevates the text for today's readers and for future generations. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, it becomes a collector's item and a cultural treasure, a complete poetry collection revived for new hands to discover and cherish.

The Ballad of Ensign Joy (Esprios Classics)
E. W. Hornung
Ernest William Hornung (1866 - 1921) was an English author and poet known for writing the A. J. Raffles series of stories about a gentleman thief in late 19th-century London. Hornung was educated at Uppingham School; as a result of poor health he left the school in December 1883 to travel to Sydney, where he stayed for two years. He drew on his Australian experiences as a background when he began writing, initially short stories and later novels. Aside from his Raffles stories, Hornung was a prodigious writer of fiction, publishing numerous books from 1890, with A Bride from the Bush to his 1914 novel The Crime Doctor.
