Gabrielle Laurence knows that there is more to foppish Baron St. Claire than he lets on, but she had no idea of the exploits he is involved in on behalf of the working classes. Terribly disappointing, unlike any other Michael's novel that I have read. (

Epigraph

I never could believe that Providence had sent a few men into the world, ready booted and spurred to ride, and millions ready saddled and bridled to be ridden.
Richard Rumbold (on the scaffold, England, 1685)

I vow, I love the game, for this is the finest sport I have yet encountered. Hair-breafth escapes...the devil's own risks! Tally ho-and away we go!
Baroness Orczy

Dedication

To Frank Shipman,
a true Renaissance man!

First words

Just shortly before ten of the clock, Herbert Symington bade his host and hostess a pleast good night and rather drunkenly tripped down the stairs toward the impressively designed if a tad overly ornate coach and four that was his latest acquisition and one of which he was enormously proud.
