Joseph Conrad (Paperback)

Reputations shift with the generations. Once a best-selling novelist, and remarkably prolific in what was a relatively short life, Walpole has since his death been largely neglected. Between 1909 and his death, Walpole wrote thirty-six novels, five volumes of short stories, plays, and three volumes of memoirs. Today, when he is remembered, it is for Rogue Herries, a novel set in the English Lake District, and involving gypsies and high adventure.
