Bull Dull DrummondBy Paul AtreidesI usually love this genre, but I found it very hard to get into this book. I first read 11%, it put me to sleep. Next day I had to reread from the first page, as I could not recap the story line in my mind. This is not usual for me. With a lot of breaks and backtracking, I finally finished the book with no skimming nor speed reading. I have read other Bull Dog Drummond and Boston Blackie books, always enjoying them very much, but this "Black Gang" book was a sleeper that never woke me up.7 of 7 people found the following review helpful.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Loughborough University Institutional Repository Sapper, Hodder & Stoughton, and the Popular Literature of the Great War ! Lise Jaillant The late 1920s saw a boom in so-called disillusioned narratives that fo- cused on the most horrific aspects of the First World War.1 This publishing trend, sparked by the international success of Eric Maria Remarque’s All Quiet on the Western Front, provoked a mixed reaction. Many reviewers saw the antiwar narratives as pacifist propaganda, untruthful to the war they had fought and won.2 Herman Cyril McNeile shared this distrust of the debunking war books. In the preface of the 1930 reprint of his war sto- ries, he wrote: “It is the fashion now . to speak of the horrors of war; to form societies for the abolition of soldiers; generally, in fact, to say ‘Never again.’”3 Written during the conflict, the stories were first published in the Daily Mail under the penname of Sapper—a reference to McNeile’s battal- ion, the Royal Engineers. Like Siegfried Sassoon and Robert Graves, Mc- Neile was a former public schoolboy and a subaltern officer. Unlike Sassoon and Graves, McNeile had been trained as a professional soldier (he joined the army in 1907 and retired in 1919).4 Whereas his account of the war is realistic, to the point of being shocking to some contemporary readers, he never came to share the disenchanted framework so common in the late 1920s. Fighting was a duty, and it was better to laugh at it than to dwell on its sinister aspects.

  • FU MANCHU and CARL PETERSON by Rick Lai
    PARTNERS IN CRIME: FU MANCHU AND CARL PETERSON by Rick Lai British thriller fiction between the two World Wars abounded in master criminals. Perhaps the two most popular sinister masterminds of this period were Fu Manchu, the creation of Sax Rohmer (pseudonym of Arthur Sarsfield Ward) and Carl Peterson, the main villain of the Bulldog Drummond novels by H. C. McNeile (who wrote under the pseudonym of “Sapper”). Although mainly known as the author of classical whodunits, Agatha Christie occasionally ventured into the realm of thriller fiction. In The Big Four (1927), she conceived the idea of having her most popular detective, Hercule Poirot, confront a diabolical plot to rule the world. The conspiracy consisted of four leaders. Two of these conspirators were essentially altered versions of Fu Manchu and Carl Peterson. Both Rohmer and McNeile had killed off their respective fictional criminals before Agatha Christie wrote her Poirot thriller. However, both arch-felons would be revived years later, and these resurrections left unresolved gaps concerning their criminal exploits in the 1920’s. It is quite easy to construct a theory viewing The Big Four as the actual record of a criminal alliance between Fu Manchu and Carl Peterson. When other parallels between the works of Rohmer, McNeile, Christie and even other authors are noted, The Big Four emerges as part of an even more complex tapestry of connections between the two great malefactors. The Big Four was written by Christie in the style of Sax Rohmer’s early Fu Manchu books, The Insidious Dr. Fu Manchu (1913, British title: The Mystery of Fu Manchu), The Return of Dr.
