I noticed that a copy of the Sabatini book, The Camisade & Other Stories, that Michael Cummins published a few years ago, is being offered on e-bay. At least...

I just uploaded a Sabatini short story from 1901 called Tommy. As perhaps some of you are noticing by now, despite he claims to the contrary, Sabatini actually...
... Thanks, Jesse...and for those who don't have Banner of the Bull, I see you uploaded its second story, The Perugian, too. As always, I look forward to...

I just uploaded a very early Sabatini historical story called The Dupes. However, I want to mention that Sabatini wrote a later, and entirely different, story...
... "Thanks, Jesse," writes Lee, realizing that he's repeated himself perhaps one time too many with this particular accolade, but also knowing that he lacks ...

I just uploaded the third, and last, story from The Banner of the Bull. One of the many things I find interesting about Sabatini is his truly huge vocabulary....
I have several stories on my hard drive that are not by Sabatini but by other swashbucklers--writers such as Farnol and the Barness Orczy. We have a section...
Dear Jesse, I did not know that Farnol wrote anything other than novels. If he wrote short stories, I, at least, would be glad to see what they are like. ...
Yes, Farnol published a couple of books of short stories. One is titled The Shadow and Other Stories; a second is titled A Matter of Business. Also there was...
... I recently downloaded the one you wrote, Jesse...but haven't looked at it yet. In many cases, I'm collecting them for printing out and reading later. I...

I just uploaded the Farnol short story An Episode. It is more of a "weird" story than it is a swashbuckler. I'll read through the two books I have and see if...

For those of you who enjoy Anthony Hope, I just uploaded a short story of his. It is fairly long--about 9,000 words It takes place in the same imaginary...
I just sent the next round of e-mail to those of you who wanted to get the RSS going. If you didn't receive anything from me and you believe you joined the...
... I also would be interested in checking out Farnol. I used to swap Farnol books for Sabatini with a woman in Boston some years ago, but have never actually...
Douglas, I'll read through my volumes of Farnol over the next few nights and see if I can uncover anything of a swashbuckling nature. If you're interested in...
There are a few swashbucklers of Farnol I think of offhand: Adam Penfeather, Winds of Chance, and (sort of) Black Bartlemy¹s Treasure (sequel: Martin ...
You are right. I must have missed some of the current correspondence. Charles ... Re: [Rafael_Sabatini] Non-Sabatini Stories You are right. I must have missed...
Since I brought up the term swashbuckler, it might be interesting to discuss on the list exactly what is a swashbuckler? In Sabatini's case, I think it would...
I didn't realize, but perhaps should have, that we have several members interested in Jeffery Farnol. There's actually a fair amount of material available on...
Good question Jesse. Historically the term "swash-buckler" originally referred to the rowdy young bucks during the 16th century who fought with sword and...
... I wasn't the moderator, but I vaguely recall sometime ago someone organizing a swashbucklers list, to which I belonged. However, for some reason, it...
It sounds to me, then, Rez, that you take a very definite narrow definition of swashbuckling. It must, to your way of thinking, include swords and sword...
