Mistress Wilding eBook

Before Scaramouche and Captain Blood, Rafael Sabatini was already spinning tales of sword and irony. In the Somerset of 1685, a gentleman wins a reluctant bride in a quarrel over a toast just as the Duke of Monmouth lands at Lyme to raise his doomed rebellion — and a single incriminating letter, fallen into the wrong hands, can send them all to the gallows. Swift, witty, and bright with steel, this edition presents Sabatini's complete and unabridged novel, newly typeset and illustrated with 30 full-page color plates.
