A warm welcome to the amusing world of Lordly Wadson, amiable man-about-town and sometime private detective and calypso singer in 1930s Bermuda. All of his various lighthearted adventures and episodes are presented here in a single volume, including several new stories published here for the very first time. Join Lordly, his fiancŽe Henrietta, her father Lieutenant-Colonel Gooding, LordlyÕs realtor friend ÔHomesÕ, LordlyÕs calypso-singing alter ego ÔLord TightwadÕ, and an assortment of American visitors to the charming Atlantic resort island of yesteryear, as Lordly does his occasionally muddled best to solve mysteries, scrape a living, assist the course of true love, and generally divert the modern reader from the dull cares of our own more stressful, faster-paced and less picturesque world. The text of the original Lordly Wadson book of stories is included here in its entirety, followed by nine newer stories (most of them previously unpublished).
