Leslie Charteris Enter The Saint blurb

Enter The Saint

The early editions of Enter The Saint had a foreword to say that they were a prequel (to use a modern word) to the Last Hero to explain how Simon earned his reputation, which was referred to at the start of that book. The book itself is usually a collection of three stories (novelettes) that had previously appeared in The Thriller magazines 1929 and were re-written with Simon Templar as the hero. The Man who was Clever appeared May 5, as The Three Kings; The Policeman with Wings Aug 24 as The House on the Moors; The Lawless Lady Oct 19 as Crooks’ Cargo.The first edition by H&S was undated, in yellow cloth covers, issued in September 1930. First hardcover publishing in the USA was by The Crime Club in 1931.
