A novice leaves his abbey for the world in 1366, joins a company of English archers under a knight of the old school, and marches into France where chivalry is already a business. Doyle thought this his best book by far and was baffled that readers wanted detective stories instead; he researched the fourteenth century for a year and put the longbow, not the sword, at the center.

Craig Kennedy, professor of chemistry at Columbia, solves crimes with a lie detector, a seismograph, a spectroscope and a portable X-ray, and explains the apparatus as he goes. Reeve wrote eighty-two of these and was called the American Conan Doyle; half the instruments here did not yet exist in a police laboratory anywhere, and within twenty years most of them did.

A boy raises a polecat-ferret in the toolshed as a god, an aunt is left up a tree by a hyena, and a governess is disposed of with tact. Saki was born in Burma and raised by two tyrannical aunts whom he spent his career killing in print; each story is three pages long, ends on a line you do not see coming, and he was shot dead by a sniper on the Somme at forty-five.

A governess with no past marries a rich baronet, and her new nephew begins to wonder what became of the friend who disappeared the week she arrived. Braddon acted on stage under a false name to keep her mother, then wrote eighty novels; this one made her fortune and defined the sensation novel - bigamy, arson and a body down a well, in the drawing rooms readers actually lived in.

A woman is married, in Scottish law, by a form of words she did not know were binding - and the man who spoke them is a brutal athlete who wants her only because she is now his property. Collins wrote this in 1870 against the marriage laws and against the cult of muscular sport, and both establishments howled; the Scottish irregular marriage was real law, and so was the fact that she had no remedy.
