Produktbeschreibung

"Rodney Stone" is a historical novel written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, first published in 1896. Unlike Conan Doyle's more famous Sherlock Holmes stories, "Rodney Stone" is set in the late 18th century and combines elements of historical fiction, adventure, and romance. The novel follows the story of Rodney Stone, a young lad growing up in England during the Regency era. Rodney becomes friends with a young boxer named Jim Harrison and becomes involved in the world of boxing himself. As he rises through the ranks of the boxing world, Rodney becomes embroiled in a series of adventures and encounters with historical figures such as Lord Nelson and the Duke of Wellington. Through Rodney's eyes, the reader is immersed in the colorful and turbulent world of 18th-century England, with its grand estates, bustling streets, and vibrant characters. The novel explores themes of friendship, loyalty, and the pursuit of honor and glory. "Rodney Stone" is praised for its vivid historical detail, engaging characters, and exciting narrative. While not as well-known as Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes stories, it remains a beloved work of historical fiction that showcases the author's versatility and skill as a storyteller.
