Romantic Rascals, 1927

1927. To the gallery of rogues pictured in his previous works, Mr. Finger has added a new series of portraits of wayward fellows no less picturesque in their careers. Among the knaves and rufflers portrayed in this collection are the Count of Saint Germaine, preceptor of the infamous Cagliostro; Cagliostro himself, whose chicaneries set half of Europe by the ears; De Barthema, great traveler and greater liar; Cambiosa, Tichborn and, greatest rascal of all, Ali Pasha of Albania. This book is another fascinating addition to fictional biography. Illustrated.
