Pistols for Two, and Other Stories

Rating:
Summary: Classic Regency
Review: From DJ:Pistols for Two is the first collection of short stories to come from the pen of Georgette Heyer., each of whose incomparable Regency romances has given pleasure to millions of readers. The stories are a happy selection from some of her favourite themes: the charming title story, for instance , tells of two close friends who reluctantly oppose each other in and affair of honour; in contrast , Night at the Inn describes a gruesom experience on the Portsmouth road.

All the gallantry, villainy and elegance of the years when Europe's first gentlemen held court at Carlton House and Brighton are exquisitely revived in Pistols for Two. This is a book full of delights for those who never tire of entering the world Miss Heyer had made so triumphantly her own.
