Hewlett, English novelist, brilliantly combines fiction with real history in Richard Yea-and-Nay. The novel begins: I like this good man's account of leopards, and find it more pertinent to my matter than you might think. Milo was a Carthusian monk, abbot of the cloister of Saint Mary-of-the-Pine by Poictiers; it was his distinction to be the lifelong friend of a man whose friendships were few: certainly it may be said of him that he knew as much of leopards as any one of his time and nation, and that his knowledge was better grounded.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
