Review # 1 was written on 2012-06-30 00:00:00 Jeanmarie Condon I read this and the other two collections in an abridged English version. If you are interested in the history of German Jews pre-Holocaust, Monika Richarz provides first hand narrative accounts that are rarely found in most historical narrative texts.

Review # 2 was written on 2017-08-08 00:00:00 Brian Benjamin Considering he was, arguably, one of the three most popular novelists of the mid-19th century, he is little regarded these days (unless a tv series appears). James Pope-Hennessy brings him to life and traces his career(s) from start to finish, the Post Office being the start and his novels the finish. Forty-eight pounds for his first book, a figure he was able to raise to �3,000 for Orley Farm much later, and in his writing career up to the time of publication of his autobiography he had earned over �68,000 from his books. The fact that he had kept figures shows how organised he was and it followed through into his writing habits, getting up early morning and setting himself a number of words to write before a particular time - and he did this wherever he was in the world. A fascinating biography of a man now much forgotten, a read of this book might bring him in some new followers.
