PULP CENTRAL: THE BLACK DEATH!
MARION POLK ANGELLOTTI / BLACK DOG BOOKS
For the first time in one volume is Marion Polk Angellotti's complete swashbuckling saga of the real life English mercenary, Sir John Hawkwood, who at the head of the legendary White Company campaigned throughout Italy during the late 14th Century.
Collected are the novel, "Sir John Hawkwood: A Tale of the White Company in Italy" (ADVENTURE April-July 1911) and eight subsequent short stories that appeared in ADVENTURE between December 1911 and July 1915: "An Intrigue in Padua", "The Poisoned Peril", "The Plot of Signor Salvi", "The Day of All-Fools", "Orders Gray", "The Treason at Castel Guardia", "The Cardinal's Sack" and "The Black Death."
A contemporary of Hawkwood once remarked, "He managed his affairs so well that there was little peace in Italy in his times," and these tales bear that out!
